Macro Photography Meetup

Saturday 26 April
Tallapoosa St, Downtown Montgomery - 10am - 2 Hours
Darius Hutton
Macro photography is a unique form of photography that involves photographing small objects to make them look life-sized or more significant in the photo. The usual subjects include flowers and small insects, which we don't normally get to see up close with the naked eye.

The class will start when the insects are more active. So be ready to explore and capture breathe-taking macro images.

    We have two young cats, they will be 1 year old in a month. This is Naomi, she loves to crawl under a blanket or coverlet and look out from there. And I always have the feeling of a meaningful human gaze. Taken with a Samsung 21s mobile phone.

    In January 25, I went on my first safari. The wildlife we saw, exceeded my expectations. We tracked this leopard, knicknamed Tom, the tatty eared leopard, for several miles. Eventually he stopped for a rest on the branch of a tree, just a few hundred yards away from our truck. I took numerous shots, but felt that I had really connected with him in this shot. It felt as though he was looking directly into my eyes!
