marco-photography

This past week at UW Photography club the theme was macro. I love macro-photography. Finding details in extremely small object/scenes is kind of fun. It's only when you take to the time to look at something closer you realize how much is really going on.


Here is the poem “In Flanders Fields” on the Canadian 10 dollar bill.



The next two shots are of some sea-shells with necklace holding some rings. Pretty elaborate eh?





Money seems like a common object to photograph for macro-photography. This a Taiwanese coin. I had no idea it was from Taiwan but I showed it around at the photo club and somebody there was from Taiwan and recognized it.



The other side of the Taiwanese coin.



Here is the Canadian penny. I find these everywhere on the ground.



So these last two are not marco at all but I took these on my walk home from photography club. This is in a church parking lot nearby my house. I like the lighting in the 1st and the feeling the photo gives off in the 2nd one.





I shall leave you with the 'Quote of this blog'. Taken from Star Trek: The Next Generation. Pretty much one of the best show ever. :) Here is is:

“You can handle defeat in two ways. You can lose confidence or you can learn from your mistakes.”

  1. Wow, I am embarrassed that I didn't know In Flanders Fields was on the 10 dollar bill... thanks for that.

    Haha, good call on the Star Trek quote! :D

  2. Jay, again I like them all. This time I had two favourites: the lemonshaped shell with the cordlike necklace draped around it, and your feel-picture of church, snow and streetlight.

  3. snuck that star trek in there, eh? Haha.

    and I really like the penny. That's cool. And the last shot. Although it looks deceptively warm.
