Sunny 16 provided several opportunities for photographers to
shoot macro/close-up images in 2018. This is a fascinating form of photography where we capture the small details in nature up close. Not only do we participate in workshops sponsored by professional photographers, we also participate in our own macro shoots.
In April we held a half-day indoor workshop which was very
well attended. Here is a sample of the types of images captured that morning:
In June, macro/close-up opportunities were found at the Girl
Scout Camp.
In August and again in November, club members went up to Louisville to photograph a variety of small critters at Mike Matthews’ home studio. Everyone came away with a collection of images of critters from all over the world!
The first week-end in February 2019 will find several club
members at the sold-out Mike Moats Macro Bootcamp being held in Bowling Green.
This looks to be a fun and productive opportunity for learning more about
macro/close-up photography.

I hope we can have another workshop this year, and possibly
put to good use some of what we learn at the boot camp. I also hope to have a
garden shoot someplace. If you have a garden and would like to host a macro
shoot, or if you know of a public garden that would welcome us, please let me
know!
If you participate in any of the club outings, be on the
look-out for macro subjects. They are all around you!
