Share Six | Macro

April’s theme is macro. This is one genre of photography that I really enjoy and don’t tend to feel is much of a challenge. So this time I decided to use some flashes to create some different lighting and give myself an extra challenge.

I played around with light placement and different methods of diffusing the lights. I tried some backlighting as well as some side lighting and two lights for some images. I also did some shots on a white backdrop and some on a black backdrop. As you can see, the lighting and different backdrop can really change the mood of an image.

Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you enjoyed my take on this theme. I know you’ll love our other contributors’ interpretations on this theme, so head on over to Sharlene’s blog by clicking HERE to continue through the blog circle!!
