I find macro photography to be so fascinating. Being able to make visible things too small for the human eye to see is so enjoyable.Editing
The images were merged together in Helicon Focus, then the result was processed in Adobe Camera Raw and Photoshop to adjust tones and craft the final image.In my camera bag
Health issues have limited my outside photography, so the vast majority is captured in my home studio or on my smartphone in the local community.Feedback
Be patient, especially shooting such small subjects. The process can be tedious and requires attention to detail.
