Macro photography practice

There is not much to do around here these days. If things were normal, I might have been exploring Cravens House on Lookout Mountain, or attending a Chattanooga Lookouts game this weekend. But, for the fourth weekend in a row, and almost a full month total, we’re staying home to stay safe.

One of the best things about exploring new places is getting to take new photographs.

Since I can’t take photos of new places, I have decided to look for photo subjects closer to home. I am using this time to get more usage out of my macro lens.

I am taking photos of things both indoors and out, and it has become a social distancing photo diary of sorts.
