Macro Photography
I'm sorry for my absence lately, but I've just been very busy with college and playing guitar.
Lately I've been grabbing my camera a lot more again, though.
Today I want to talk about Macro Photography.
I've always liked Macro Photography, I always used to just zoom in with my little camera and see if the photos turn out sharp enough. It just had some kind of mystery to it.
The thing with Macro Photography is that you can basically use any sub-/object and it'll still look nice with the appropriate settings. You'll also definitely need a tripod for the lesser lit places.
What you need to do is look for the Aperture Priority mode and set it to whatever aperture you want it to be on, try to get the sharpest mode for your lens. For mine this is f/5.6 or something like that.
The best thing to do is just get out Manual mode so that you can change everything and really get whatever you want.
Place the camera with tripod in front of the sub-/object, zoom in as much as you can and manual focus to the closest point. Now move your camera towards the sub-/object until it's properly in focus. Get it completely in focus and before you take the shot, make sure you've got it set to 2 seconds waiting time. This way you pressing the button won't affect the photo taken.
Practice with it a bit and you'll get something like this:

Prison, Veenhuizen
Last weekend I went to a prison in Veenhuizen. It's this museum about prisons and how they used to handle inmates back in the 1800/1900s. It was really quite interesting and it resulted in (sadly only) a few nice photos I could take.
The problem there was that all the interesting things were behind mirrored glass, which made it really difficult for me to take good shots since I didn't have my polarization filter with me. Shame but oh well, here they are. :)
