Weekly Photo Challenge – Focus!
I have always been fascinated by macro photography since my daughter was very young and we used to crawl around the local woods looking for fungus to snap. A heavy SLR camera fitted with extension rings plus a tripod was dragged through autumn leaves and mud. Nowadays a digital point-and-shoot makes things a lot easier, but finding good subject matter and blurring the background while sharpening the foreground on something the size of a pinhead is still a challenge. Here’s a couple of recent successes in our local woods with raindrops as inspiration.

That’s it Carlos, take lots of photos remembering your settings on the camera. Some will be good, some will be rubbish, but slowly as you learn all will be good👍👍
