Macro Photos

A selection of photos taken with a new macro lens - somewhat challenging in the lower light of an overcast, breezy winter day and playing with an incredibly shallow depth of field. The combination of a (slight) telephoto focal length, large apertures, short focal distances and a full frame sensor are all factors affecting and reducing the depth. The small branch shoots in the third photo of tree bark are approx. 3mm long.

Technical details: Sigma 105mm lens, photos shot in raw with minor exposure / colour / white balance edits during conversion.
