What am I looking at? It’s like an aerial map or a bunch of cells divided into compartments. . In reality it’s just a network of lines seen of a single leaf backlit by the sun! . Seeing the details that we often overlook can be quite surprising, which is why I love a good macro photo. .

Here’s the story of how I get my backyard macro shots. . Swipe left to see the video of me searching for a perfect candidate water bubble on a petal. Once I find one, I put my camera down on the ground and shoot about 20cm away from it. I try various angles and compositions (swipe to see more variations) to try and get one that I am happy with. . Yesterday morning was quite cold so I didn’t stay out very long, and after looking at all the photos I took, I realized I wasn’t happy with any of them! . So I ended up with this first image of an abstract blur of grass and water droplets that I thought was a fun photo. The subtle white circles are water bubbles on blades of grass that was intentionally blurred to create an ethereal feeling to this photo. . Which photo do you like? .

When it rains, I always find it interesting to get up close to your subject and see if the water droplets can produce something of interest. In this first frame, I loved how each water droplet became slightly smaller as they lined up along the curve of the petal. You’ll need a macro lens for this, since the petals themselves ar very small to begin with. Swipe left to see more droplets and for the flower I was taking a picture of. .
