Nikon 1 V3 Hodgepodge | Contour Close

Nikon 1 V3 Hodgepodge | Contour Close   The naked eye can only get so close.   Macro photography can give you a very different perspective which is better than the naked eye.  Just look at the amazing detail in a simple flower.

The Back Story  My walkabouts tend to take longer in the spring.  It takes time and patience to capture nice macro images especially with a manual focus lens.   Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.
