It’s the Little Things: An Introduction to Macro Photography

When it comes to wildlife and nature photography, the “smaller things” often get short shrift. However, nature’s tiny subjects are worthy of recognition, as they can be just as colorful, charismatic and photogenic as the megafauna that is the more prevalent focus. Court Whelan discusses the details of macro photography—capturing close-up images of small subjects—in a webinar designed for all photography skill levels. In addition to basic instruction on macro photography with point-and-shoot cameras, DSLRs and mirrorless cameras, Court presents different techniques for creative approaches, as well as an overview of all the equipment out there that will allow you to excel in macro photography. Whether you’re photographing flowers in your own backyard, butterflies in the Amazon rain forest, or beetles in Borneo, you’re sure to come away with new skills and inspiration.
