Macro assignment, check it

During this assignment, I learned that my camera is not very macro friendly. Well, I don't know if it's my camera, or cameras in general, but I thought I would be able to get closer than I was. Also, when the flash is turned off (which is kind of important in these cases), the shutter speed is longer on my camera, so I had to practice steady hand!

I wasn't able to get very inspired, but I did take a couple of shots that I really liked.


This one makes me regret eating so much fast food yesterday :) The lettuce doesn't look the most fresh, but the close-up still entices me. I would love to be able to afford a better camera, to get shots like this, but much crisper.


I don't know if this exactly qualifies as using the macro setting as intended. It's just so cool how the front is clear and the back is blurry! I think I need to invest in one of those bendable tri-pods to increase the clarity of my pictures.

    I like this picture also because the closest part it clear and the back blurry... but also because you can really see the shape of the cup. The top looks very wide and bottom small. Nice picture!!

    I like the picture of the measuring cup. As you said it looks neat because the back is blurry and the front it clear. I think it is a really neat perspective. The purple on the side, is that a reflection of something else? It looks pretty neat.
