Macro-photography experiment
Recently I began experimenting with macro photography. I started by setting up a little scene of fun objects from my collection of stuff. As you can see from the picture, some of the objects are only 1/2″ or so in size. My challenge was to create a depth of field that made all the objects in focus. I used a Canon 100mm lens that my friend loaned me, with a setup of continuos tungsten lights with 3′ umbrellas. My camera was on a tripod, in mirror lock-up with a cable release. I had the f stop set to f22, at .6 seconds. I’m very happy with the results and hope to experiment more in the future. Any ideas or suggestions are much appreciated.
