Macro Techniques

When using a Macro lens, it's very important to have a fast shutter speed. This is because the main idea for this technique of photography is to capture a sharp and detailed image, if there was a slow shutter speed, this would result in distortion and maybe blur, which if that isn't intended it can ruin an image.

Macro photography definition- A photography technique producing photographs of small items larger than life size.

The equipment needed for this technique is a tripod, even though there is a fast shutter speed so movement wouldn't be a problem, a tripod is very handy in order to create a "straight" and well positioned image. 
This is an example of a macro photo, you can see the sharp detail of the cats face, the main aspect of this image which makes it intriguing (the studium) is the cats eye, it's almost has a bubble like effect of it. Also this is a good example of macro photography because you can see the clear detail of the cats fur and whiskers which in real life you can't see as clear as this image.
