Macro Is Fun!

I was invited to go on a photographer meetup involving shooting around Boston, specifically involving macro photography. I’d never been part of a meetup before, but I see them via Instagram and have been part of many failed attempts. The very first thing that came to mind was that I’d never shot macro before, and I don’t have the right lens in order to do so successful (instant purchase). I bought an 85MM F2 Macro lens and started practicing in the kitchen, where all great tests have taken place in the past. Yesterday I was ready to take what I had quickly learned from TikTok out into the real world and headed to the Boston Public Garden to photograph the Tulips. Macro is a bit challenging, but a tone of fun! I really love the attention to detail you are able to capture, and it maximizes your observation senses.

Unfortunately, I cannot attend the upcoming meetup because I’m heading home for Mother’s Day Weekend - Happy to have picked up a new skill though!
