Macro Monday
Welcome to my first installment of Macro Monday!
I've decided that in my attempt to get material up here as frequently as possible, I will have to interject themes into my week. Not only that, but I enjoy photographs. And I enjoy the perspective other people have when they take photos. I am certainly not a pro by any stretch of the imagination. But I would like to consider myself an amateur with aspirations of becoming much better.
I garner inspiration from other photographers. I don't know many other photographers. Actually, I only know two. One is my Aunt Linda who took amazing shots of nature. She lived in Miami and would go to the Everglades and take photos of the nature there. She was published in a few magazines but mostly took photos just for herself. Unfortunately, my Aunt Linda developed esophageal cancer in 2000 and died from the cancer in 2001. She loved to take macro photos and her attention to detail was impeccable.
The second photographer I know is Brandi's husband, Matt. He has an incredible eye. The way he sees his composition astounds me, and his photos are always crystal clear. To develop an eye like his is what I aspire to. Take a look at some of his photography on Flickr.
Anyhow, I've got to get going for the day so let me wrap it up.
The camera I use is an hp Photosmart R927.
Here's my first installment of Macro Monday!
Subject:
A ball band from a ball of Lion Brand Cotton Ease.
It looked so forlorn I just had to photograph it.
