You know, it's taken me at least two years to understand Macro Photography. I've learned a lot in that time. I've learned huge amounts about photography. I bet I could ace a beginner's course!
Shortly before Spring 2009, I finally figured out that "natural light" can come right through a window in my warm house! That was helpful!
Naturally, I am always taking the longest route to the goal that I hope to achieve. It's just the way I am. I know this about myself, so even if I don't achieve my goal right away, I know I can learn something!
Probably in late June, someone mentioned the words "close ups", when referring to macro photography. That was one big bright lightbulb that went on! Whew! You mean, Duh!
Finally, I think I have the process down! Yay, me!
So what you can take from this post, are two things. If you want to take pictures for your Etsy Shop, you need to have natural light and a macro setting on your camera that you actually use.
It's the coolest!
When I finally figure something out, I'm probably the last to know, but in case you didn't know, that's what you need to understand about macro photography for your Etsy Shop. It'll save you two years, if you're anything like me.
