Friday Hometown Shootout -- Macro

Only a few shots this week.

I also get confused.  I know that macro photography is close-up photography.  But then, what is micro photography.  And in other instances of the word "macro" -- macro-economics, for instance -- macro means a wide, distant view of things.   Ah well, the English language is just like that, I guess.





As Porky Pig would say, "Tha...tha...tha...tha...that's all, folks!"

  1. Indeed, when do we call something macro and when micro? Micro is pretty clear most of the times, but macro is often used different from what I would have thought.

  2. Now I am confused. Should I be saving my money for a macro lens or a micro lens?

  3. my head still hurts this morning trying to figure it out - the FSO said, Macro - your town up close and personal - and I was stopped dead - a big shot of my town up close..?. what is that first shot? Very interesting, looks like slices of strawberries to me.
    have a great week MR Mark.

  5. I can guess on that first photo it looks like a anemone. ^_^ Mine is different too but it's what about my interpretation of up close and personal to our theme. ^_^

  9. Is there something wrong with me? I can't figure out the first - or the last. Maybe it is too macro/micro for me!

  10. I know this if off topic but I'm looking into starting my own weblog and was wondering what all is needed to get setup? I'm assuming having
    a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I'm not very internet savvy so I'm not 100% sure.

    Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Appreciate it
