Macro Photography

Macro photography is when the image makes the object appear larger than they actually are.
3 things to keep in mind:
1. Choose a good subject
2.Pay attention to depth of field
3. Use good lighting

10 other objects:

This squirrel is very small, but the photo makes it look big.
The blurred background doesn't show how tall the moss is so it makes the squirrel look even bigger.
The focus on the squirrel makes the image very clear and the details seem larger.
The depth of field makes the subject clearer and allows depth to be illustrated.
The lighting makes it even clearer and allows the camera to focus on the subject.

The subject is actually small, but the way I took the picture made it look large.

-background There really isn't a background so that the focus is mainly on the iris and nothing else.
-focus The details in the iris are clearly shown from the camera being able to focus on the iris itself.
-depth of field the reflection of the eye gives the illusion of the roundness of the eyeball and shows the depth of it.
-lighting I used natural lighting to prevent the harsh light from obscuring the details of the eye.
