My new resolution for each Friday
Next to my office, there are several ponds that are teeming with wildlife. Once in awhile, I go down there during lunch to take a few pictures. I often find that my best macro shots are taken in places I go to often. For instance, the majority of my best shots come from my backyard.
Therefore, I have decided to organize a group mini-photoshoot each Friday during lunch. This will push me to make sure I show up here each Friday. Each day, I also try to do something different. For instance, the last time I went there I took my MP-E 65 and took pictures of the few creatures I could find. Conditions were wet and chilly and much insect life had not yet appeared. However, I did find some interesting worms.
As with current trends, I am trying to pay more attention to composition in my shots. Therefore, it worked out quite well that I found some interesting worms.
I am excited to keep visiting this location each week to see it slowly change. It is a very interesting area and I will try a few non-macro shots as well in the future. For instance, there are a great deal of birds here so I will bring my 100-400 at some point.
