Macro at Home 3

This is definitely getting a LOT harder the more I do, and I'm only on number 3! There's only so much stuff you can have in one house that will make a good photo! Soon I will be home for christmas though so I can have a go round there to at least give me some more time before the next lot here! I've actually started making lists of things I could potentially shoot to make sure I don't forget any if I get some inspiration!

So, here are this weeks installments!

1. My headphones. Yes they're pink inside.
2. Beeeerrrr. I've wanted to take this photo for quite a while now. I even cut open the box to have all the tops exposed. This however took me too long to take so I have drunk half of them already. oops. Plus I like the grainy-ness to it.
3. I have a £1 Christmas tree in my room. It's crappy and awful but it was a pound!
4. I know it's not halloween anymore, but my little ghost candle holders are still out as I have nowhere to put them!
5. More alcohol?! But seen as I will be drinking this tonight I thought it should be taken.
5. Tennis balls. Been sat on my shelf too long so they got a little outing to the floor before being returned to the shelf.

Macro at Home 2

So after my first Macro at Home post, I decided I quite liked this type of blog post and I liked finding the photos, so I would try to make it a weekly thing. The only thing with taking them, is that every time I do one, the challenge to find more things to capture gets harder! I guess I will just have to get my thinking cap on!

So here is this week's installment. I meant to post it yesterday but I have been so busy with uni work that I just plain forgot!

These luckily for me and my, at the moment, very dead brain, didn't require me to find more things to shoot around my house as I took them at my girlfriend's house!

So here they are....

1. A rose
2. A funky light fitting
3 & 4. The radiator - I liked the symmetry of the first photo but I liked the second one more so I posted them both! And it took me forever to get these photos so I am putting them both up!
5. The cheese on a pizza, mmmmmm...







Also don't forget to enter my competition, a fantastic prize is up for grabs!

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!




And finally I linked with 5 on friday, however I did 8 and I did it on wednesday, sue me!
