Macro at Home

Hey there.

Today I finished uni and I was a little bit bored so I decided to go round my house looking for things to photograph. I was sure there would be some good things in the bedrooms of 4 students... nothing naughty though for those of you out there thinking that!

Obviously as macro is my passion I shot everything close up to see if the everyday things we have at home could look different in a photo. Here are my results...

Todays photos include:

1. My bottle of Joop! Jump aftershave
2. My housemates dartboard
3. A rusty handle in the garden
4. A bmx bike grip
5. The wallpaper in my living room
6. My Mickey Mouse poster
7. My new bamboo phone case
8. A clothes peg









Wow that peg is so close! how did you do that on such a short telephoto zoom lense? Well basically I cheated! I actually have a ridiculously large peg! See!



I also shared this on photography Friday link up, check it out!


I also linked with Find Beauty Friday here!
