The weather warms, the birds sing, the sun beams. Spring is in the air and for photographers — professionals and wannabes —all of the aforementioned make the idea of moving outdoors with your camera far more appealing.
The season is a time of renewal and rebirth, which begs shutterbugs to get up close and personal. Whether nice and tight or macro, moving in on the first brightening blades of grass, dewy moist, on a crisp spring morning gives new meaning to a fresh start. Putting a nice tight focus on a flower blooming from the rich soil is also a pleasing perspective when seeing a world in the process of awakening.
To prove my point, here are some wonderful examples of spring macro and closeup photography:
