Up Close and Personal







One of the many things I inherited from my father was a love of taking pictures up close, like really close. I've taken a series of shots with the macro lens on my window ledge in bright sunlight and absolutely revel in the challenge of capturing the detail and playing with the depth of field.

It is also a great way to learn more about composition since you are shooting the same thing over and over, which I apologize for, and it forces you to make very minor adjustments. I feel very comfortable with the manual exposure and realize how much better my shots are with the a better exposure.
