What is Macro Photography?
To dive into macro photography, you don't need a specialized lens right away. A macro lens offers exceptional detail, but you can start with extension tubes, close-up filters, or even a reversing ring for a more budget-friendly approach.2/Getting Started
Getting Started
Common subjects include insects, flowers, water droplets, and textures like the surface of leaves. Look for interesting shapes, colors, and patterns to make your photos stand out.3/Subjects
Subjects
Lighting can make or break a macro shot. Natural light is great, but a diffused flash or LED light can help illuminate your subject without harsh shadows. Consider using reflectors to bounce light and reduce contrast.4/Lighting
Lighting
Macro photography often has a very shallow depth of field. This means only a small part of your subject will be in focus, which can be used creatively to highlight specific details. Use a smaller aperture (higher f-stop) to increase depth of field if needed.5/Depth of Field

Achieving sharp focus is crucial in macro photography. Manual focus is often preferred over auto-focus for precision. Use a tripod to avoid camera shake, and consider focus stacking to blend multiple images with different focus points.6/Focus Techniques
