April 2016 - 10,001 DP


April 2016 - Days Photographed to Date: 334

As I type the word 'April' in the title of this month's blog and calculate the days photographed to date, I realize that my Project 365 will come to a completion in 31 more day. It has been interesting to say the least. I am not for sure if I will continue with a daily photograph, I am still mulling that over.  What do you think?

Link to the monthly Flickr Album to see all of the daily pictures and quotes. There are viewing controls in the upper right hand corner that you can use to see a slide show.

Shooting Macro

One of my new toys is a 100mm f/2.8 macro lens with 1:1 macro ratio capability - meaning subjects can appear life-size in close-up images. All I can say is WOW - getting this close to your subject really opens your eyes to details we don't normally see.

See examples below and more macro shots on my FLICKR page.
