Macro Photography Subject Ideas

Are you currently looking for some interesting ideas about macro photography? Or you are simply tired of the photos-that's it? Everyone can make a subject to be close, but not necessarily not unique. Therefore, here are some ideas about macro photography macro project that might inspire your creativity:


Cutlery. Such as knives, forks and spoons can be used as a lesson shooting macro photography. Set like pieces together to create lines and patterns. 


Feathers. Beautiful coat close. The central shaft to create strong lines that can be curved or straight, while the rest of the feather gives a soft texture. Use the feathers of birds that you find or buy, or pick one from a pillow or blanket! 

Water droplets. This one is classic, but be creative, and finding water on the surface of unusual you like fence wire, spider webs, or the rearview mirror. Morning dew makes the subject almost magical. In the Spring or Fall, you can search for ice instead of dew. 


Glass. Close up photograph can produce fine crystal glasses filled with beautiful abstract curved lines and reflection. For added fun, place a glass side by side or one behind the other to create a line where they overlap. You can fill a glass with colored water for even more creative images. Finally, you can add a sheet of clear glass, but the textured (available for purchase at craft stores stained glass) in front of your glass. The possibilities are endless. 


Foil reflection. While you have your glasses full of colored water, why not spend a sheet of kitchen foil, or some shiny silver paper crafts? Use your macro lens to shoot into the foil and catch the reflection of colored water folds and creases. This exercise is a complicated, and requires patience, but the results can be very useful. 

Fruits and vegetables. They are not only good for your diet! Fruit and vegetables make the subject of macro photography. Try corn on the cob slices, orange, or go for more exotic fare such as dragon fruit. You can put slices of translucent in the lightbox for the background, a clean bright white. You can also take pictures of fruit or vegetables on the plate in a complementary color.


Rust and paint peeling. Rust interesting patterns can be found on older cars, or even a metal trash can in the park. Peeling paint on old fences and walls. Just beware of harsh shadows if you're shooting in bright sunlight. 


Car details. The line of sleek and shiny chrome trim on the polished cars can provide hours of entertainment photography. You can shoot your own car, but do not be shy about taking the camera to an antique car show. Car owners are usually proud of their vehicles, and will not mind you photographing the details. 

Animals bits. The texture of fur on your pet dog, or wrinkled skin of elephants in zoos, can make a great close up shot. Paws, claws and teeth are fun too, provided you stay out of danger. Finally, the eyes always make interesting subjects. Shoot close-ups of the eyes of your dog or cat, or a person's eyes. 


Network. For some abstract high key, and the subject is really unusual, try photographing a tissue. With a little imagination, the line and the image formed by the gentle folds can create some interesting images. 


For a bonus, take a fresh look at ordinary objects around your house, such as light bulbs, shoelaces, pages of books, clothes pegs, straws, holiday ornaments, or a pencil. Try to find interesting patterns, lines, shapes, and colors, and make a little close to magic. 


I hope this idea can inspire your creativity.
