Bubbles

Bubbles – always fascinating when shooting macros. It is a subject that can be re-visited again and again.

I have used a glass of water and some oil, approx 1 cm on top of the water, and then I stirred it . The different colors are a result of filters in front of the light source – an ordinary spotlight. In two of the red ones, a flashlight has been used as additional light source.

Drops

Drops - an always popular motive when shooting macros, both outdoors and indoors.

When shooting flowers, bushes, berries, insect, etc, a few drops in your composition do wonders. If you are shooting indoors, the only thing you need is some water, lighting, a tripod and a bit creativeness. Autumn I think must be high season for indoor macro photographing, at least where I come from, where the weather is often wet and hazy at this time of year.

The most important thing to remember when taking pictures, is having a good time while you are at it. The drops in the last picture, are actually red wine :)
