ABSTRACT
There is nothing quite as fascinating as shooting close-up and macro photography. A world in miniature is all around, with tiny creatures appearing as monsters. An incredible wealth of detail is achievable, and the greater the magnification the more bizarre it all becomes. A great joy is to illustrate to non-diving friends and family a hidden world of wonder, and most people begin with close-up when they take up underwater photography. The reason being is that it is likely to achieve instant success because it tends be easier. You don’t need to go to special places; opportunities are all around. So, if you are itching to get going here is a quick-start guide.
