Tuesday 10 February Macro and Close up.


 On Tuesday evening we had a practical session all about macro and close-up.  Jack gave a quick recap on the difference between macro and close up

Macro is 1x1 magnification and the subject is usually 1" (2.5 cm).  He talked about the different methods that can be used to photograph small objects.  You can use macro lens of different focal lengths, a telephoto lens or even add adapters to your lens such as tele convertors or extension tubes.

There were several tables setup with a variety of objects.  Jan also set up a table for water reflections.  Jack had a variety of of lenses and adapters to show what was possible.

Here are some of the images from the evening:
