Taking a Closer Look at Macro Photography

Close-up photography is using a wide or telephoto lens close enough to the subject so it fills the frame.

Usually, we think of looking at a magnified bug’s eye or the cellular make-up of a leaf when we think of macro, but it’s so much more. And you should be using it in your landscape and nature photography!
