Macro Photography - Straight Images

Macro Photography - Straight Images

I like this image as I think it shows the concept of macro photography well. Even in the photo, you are able to see the delicate detailing of the coin as well as the reflections. I also think that the red colour within the background adds to the overall effect of the image.

I like how with this image, you can see the intricate details within the eye and the areas surrounding it. I did slightly edit the image using Photoshop to make it a little brighter and more effective.

I further edited this image by making the eye purple. I think it looks very effective and adds a splash of colour into the image.

I then further developed the previous idea of adding a splash of colour and decided to make the eye a blend of blues, purples and pinks. I really like the outcome and feel that it looks much more interesting. In some ways, the colours within the eye remind me of space and galaxies. In this way, the image makes the viewer think more about the meaning of the image.

I like this image but not as much as I like the others. It is very slightly out of focus and does not have the same crisp feel as the other images. However, for my first attempt at macro photography, I am pleased with the outcome.

I like this image as I feel it links well to the first image of the coin. I like the outcome and think that the lighting set up which I had in the studio helped to make the outcome more effective and interesting due to the fact that it was well lit. I like the reflections which this has created on both the coin and the battery.
