Went for a walk with my macro lens. For my mentoring group macro nature week. I learnt my lesson from the freezing cold walk I went on a few weeks ago, this time I have put on hubby's old thermal jumper to keep me warm. My legs turned into blocks of ice so next time I'm wearing the long johns too!! This macro photography thing is hard!
@gigiflower 1C. Before I headed out I was already freezing after being out for 50 mins on the school run, but the sun was poking through the mist and I couldn't bear the thought of coming straight in and doing the ironing pile or making the tea ready for tonight! So thermals it was....
Great macro Ruth!! Lovely detail and colours of the shriveled berries. Lovely focus and dof giving you a great bokeh!! Wrap up and keep warm!! 35C in Melbourne would kill me!!
Fabulous macro. I don't think I could cope with the cold like you are having though. Been there, done that. I will stick with the 30 degrees c here. Don't do single figures any more.
The focus and dof in this one is terrific! I think I might just crop that white branch (?) on the left which would leave the shot kind of squarish. But this is really nice. You must be pleased, especially as you had to brave hypothermia to get it!
