Topic

Macro photography is the art and skill of making extreme close-up images of small objects or parts of objects.  Macro photographs typically represent objects at life size or greater.  In this presentation, Fuat will give an overview of macro photography and discuss the tools and techniques that will allow anyone to experiment with this genre of photography, with or without specialist gear.   Fuat will share some of his favorite photographs, mostly close-ups of common objects.
