Close-up or macro photography is another aspect of photography. It makes your subject appear larger than life, and it lets you see the finer details you would otherwise miss in the subject. Macro photography is not about shoving your camera up close to your subject and start clicking. It requires a lot of technical knowledge and skills, as any good photographer will tell you. For those keen to try their hand at macro photography, here are some tips and tricks to help you: 1. Choose your subject Any thing can be used in macro photography, but some things just make more interesting subjects because of their shape, design, geometric form and bright colour. Some examples of such objects are flowers, leaves with dewdrops on them, fruits (cut or uncut), seashells, stamps, and any decorative items made of natural wood, bamboo or stone. 2. Use a tripod When photographing a subject at extremely close range, it's better to mount your camera on a sturdy tripod instead of holding it in your hands.
