Click Chicks Challenge: Vision

This week I am participating in Krystal's Click Chicks challenge. Every week, she'll challenge readers to take photos about a certain topic and blog about them. This week's topic is vision. The challenge asks "What do you see? What are you planning? What do you hope for?"

I've always enjoyed looking at things in different ways -- intellectually, spiritually, and physically. Since this is a photo post, this will focus on the physical ways that I look at things differently.

One of my favorite photo techniques is macro. I love looking at things up close. When you are closer, you can see things that you normally wouldn't. You can also see something else entirely, if it's close enough. It can alter the shape of the object, and if the focus is on a unique point, it will disguise the object further.

Looking Down a Straw

Sometimes macro photography isn't about getting a different perspective, however. Sometimes it is just about getting a closer look so you can admire the tiny elements of something and all the beauty within.

What is your vision? What do you see, and how do you like looking at things?

  2. I just received a dslr for Christmas, and have soooo many things to learn. Once I learn, maybe I'll know what kind of settings I like, too :)
