Macro Photography Meetup

Macro Photography Meetup

Saturday 26 April
Stephen's Green Park - 10am - 2 Hours
Lucian Petronel Potlog
Macro photography is a unique form of photography that involves photographing small objects to make them look life-sized or more significant in the photo. The usual subjects include flowers and small insects, which we don't normally get to see up close with the naked eye.

The class will start when the insects are more active. So be ready to explore and capture breathe-taking macro images.

Architectural photography can be a great way of exploring and documenting a city, whether it's your home or on holiday.

    The Cadillac Ranch is an iconic sculpture located in Amarillo, Texas. The location is part of the famous route 66. I went to visit a canyon near the Cadillac Ranch and I decided to stay one more night to visit the sculpture in the early hours and I didn?t regret. The sunrise was magnificent and I managed to capture that moment with my camera.

    The Old Oak Tree, 2025.This is one of my favorite trees. It is situated alone in a huge field on a little farm near where I live. Every time I see it and the little rope swing that hangs from it, it just fills me with a sense of peace and tranquility. I wanted to portray that in this minimalist, high key version of it.
