Happy belated Monday everyone - A very quick post this morning as I head out to work. I wanted to share this image today and talk a little bit about the macro technique I have been practicing. One of the challenges for a shot like this is that it seems like the smaller a subject is, the faster it will move around. So not only do you have to come prepared with a very fast shutter speed (and an increase in the available light if needed), you also have to try to predict where your subject will land ahead of time and either pre-focus on that spot or use a zone focus to increase the chances you will get the shot you are looking for. I think I'll dive into zone focusing a bit more in the blog post for tomorrow (later today). Enjoy your day everyone -
