Learning New Tricks

So 2010 has gone and now its a whole new year to enjoy learn and grow in all facets of our lives. One way to grow as a photographer is try something you have not done much of before this is sure to stretch you and help even in areas you are more comfortable with.

I have been fortunate enough to acquire a new 180mm macro lens and have been learning all about how to do effective macro work with all its attendant difficulties and challenges. Some of the more flighty subjects require the use of flash to ensure a sharp result others are more happy to pose.

Naturally I have much to learn but already I have learnt a lot and the feeling of accomplishment is reward enough. So here’s wishing you all a happy and prosperous new year don’t be afraid to stretch yourself in natural things and indeed spiritual remember that Columbus didn’t discover the New World by staying at home.
