Some More Macro Work (iPhone)

I’ve never really been a big macro shooter, but I have always admired the work and effort that goes into capturing a macro photograph. With this little conversion lens I’ve been having fun around the house grabbing a few macro shots here and there, from the kitchen to the front yard. No fancy tripods, no expensive macro rails, no focus stacking and no sophisticated flash configurations, just a tiny little lens screwed onto the back of my iPhone and shot handheld.

This little snail is a little smaller than the size of a dime.

And a couple things from the kitchen…brussels sprouts!
