Motivation August 2008 - Close-up & Macro Photography
At this months meeting, Tony Murphy gave a presentation on 'Close-up and Macro Photography with a Digital Compact Camera' - this will be the Motivational Theme for July.
Digital Compact cameras can have a big advantage over Digital SLR camera when it comes to Macro photography (SLR cameras usually need a special lens or lens adapter to perform macro functions). The quality of the lens, in even a basic compact camera, can enable the photographer to get extremely close to the subject - how close will depend on the make and model of camera, some are simply more capable in macro mode than others.
There are a few simple tips to help photographers outlined in the attached supplement HERE. Members are asked to submit no more than THREE images for the Motivation League on or before Friday 8th August 2008.
