I'm not sure I would classify this image as a macro. Close-up? You bet, but a macro connotates things on scale much larger than we see them in real life. Wonderful photo either way. =] Check out the Wikipedia definition.Kort Kramer - Kramer Kreations
To me they look fabulous:
#1 - superb - love the clean look white on white and perfect capture of colour and detail.
#2 - lovely almost abstract in style
#3 - superb angle and backlight perfect center of focus
Well done !

Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies
live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to
sea in a Sieve.

Hi Tofi! They all cool shots, but I would call them close up. To make it macro I think you have to go closer much as you can to get all the tiny details out of them. ( remember this: a close shot of a spider or a macro shot of a same spider's hairy leg,) that is how I explane to myself when I do macro. And lucky you, you have a macro lens !!
seeya
WOW!
The first & third to me ain't MACRO.. they call it Semi-Macro or like others say: CLOSEUP!!
The second one is almost or we can say it is Macro one.. But all of them are super shots..
Great job and very welldone !!

Yes, but if limited to 1:1 perhaps...we do what we can. I call #2 true macro, # 1 close up adn #3 very close up. The frist image is my fav..very lovely with the clean background. Yes, I too like the lighting in #3.....oops, I am numbering according to the lineup on the thread, not the numbers with the photos. Hope that makes sense. Tom.
That top one is gorgeous.Nice composition.
One thing I used to do like on your others is...if I saw specs of dirt or pollen in the way I would clone them out.
Makes it cleaner.
Way to go and keep shooting.:thumbupboth:

They are all wonderful shots.Truly beautiful.But my favorite is the first.I love orchids and the white background looks perfect!
Never meddle in the affairs of dragons for you are crunchy and taste great with ketchup.

Here is a link to one of my images. I am pretty sure that you could consider it a macro, though I know some people who get even closer with their macro lenses, extension tubes and magnification filters. You could even compare...the buggie at the tope left would be closer to life size, while the big one falls into the macro category, being somewhere around 1:10. (or is that 10:1?) :m_confused2: Anyway...I would say your second 2 image fall more into the macro category, and are just beautiful! =]Kort Kramer - Kramer Kreations

Hello,
Sorry for the late response ..Just came back from West Coast CA (business" trip).
Kort, thank you for the link. Your picture is one of the best I've seen in the world of the bugs. Your picture...I can only say.....INCREDIBLE... so perfect in all aspects. It will take me ages to learn how to make one like yours...So far I am experimenting with flowers, getting ready for rocks and crystals.
Thank You all for your time and comments, which are very valuable in my rocky way to good photography.
Greetings to All

Not to be disagreeable,but I think the white background looks wonderful.Of course,it could look great with a dark one.I hope you'll show us the results.
