During those power outage days last week, I spent most of the time outside in my backyard taking macro shots of tiny plants. I was really getting the hang of it, despite the fact that I do not own a true Macro lens and that I've yet to learn and master the technique of macro photography. It's amazing how the thrill is to immerse yourself in the world of tiny plants and creepy crawlies. Speaking of creepy crawlies, I will give snapping bugs and small eeky creatures a shot in my next backyard outing soon.
I'm kinda stressed this week, but in a good way. I've got work this weekend at a function at ICC. So what's a good stress reliever for me? Nature shooting!
A while back I've blogged about taking a macro shot of a flower at my mom's little garden outside the house (click here.) I was using my 2 megapixel Sony Ericsson K750i back then (pictured above), and I was fussing about wanting to get a dSLR. Fast forward 2 months later and I'm shooting the same flowers again, and this time with my Nikon D80. Can you tell the difference?
