Life in macro

I have no idea what it was that drew me to macro photography. Maybe something similar that draws me to abstract art. My first camera was excellent for macro photography and i got some stunning images of diving gear one day by putting it on white paper in direct sunlight. This camera eventually went off to the big printer dock in the sky and i got the nice little compact. However its macro function was sadly lacking and it went on fleabay last week. The new camera.....whooooeee what a macro! I will share with you some of my latest efforts, plus my abstract painting (its a lighthouse in the Faroe Islands if you want to know where the subject is).

The lighthouse might be stylised but it is certainly not abstract. Two down is very effective...it looks like it fell off Muness' blog...Looking forward to seeing more possibly puzzling close-ups. And maybe a competition in the offing in true iB tradition!

Flying Cat from can you see what it is yet?
