Macro Photography Session | Small twigs in form of tweezers
Hi everyone
Today we will visually scrutinize one more succulent.
Instead of having thorns, it presents a series of small twigs in form of tweezers or tentacles.
Similar to several other succulents, yet different in several particulars.
Now the funniest thing would be to realize that this is not a succulent, and by the way, I don't know the species.
One more that was offered to add to the rest :)
My introductory thoughts about macro photography:
It's amazing how macros with their blurred background can result in such different images full of contrasts and textures especially with this kind of subjects.
In the world of photography, especially macro photography, there is a universe of things available to everyone, enabling totally different and original approaches.
Before moving onto the result...
Feel free to check some of the previous macro photography sessions with a technique short description:

- Macro Photography Session | Crassula Ovata - Wealth and prosperity plan
- Macro Photography Session | Chain extenders
Here i present the technique used through a short visual tutorial:
Among the various possible techniques to shoot macros, this is perhaps the most affordable and effective technique for those who have a camera with removable lens.
We can simply remove the lens and reverse the direction, and by using an inverter ring it ends up being more comfortable and facilitates the process.
Let's now move onto the result:
