Macro photography

Macro photography is not something which I had really dabbled in, before I began my forest bathing adventures for this website. I have had hours of fun scrabbling through the undergrowth, or sitting patiently and waiting for a bee or butterfly to stop long enough for me to be able to get a perfect snap. There has been a whole new world open up for me to experience.

The obvious new-found favourite of mine has got to be the mushroom. I have loved discovering so may varieties, which I previously didn’t even know existed.

I have also watched insects going about their daily lives, which you wouldn’t normally do. It has been fascinating.

Witnessing the change of the seasons through berries, and even pine cones, has also helped me to feel more connected to nature.

Most people think of photography as taking a perfect shot of a landscape, yet there is so many beautiful and amazing things to see if you venture into the world of macro photography.
