Macro photography really is made for creativity. I've shot so many 'standard' images of insects over the years so it's time to do something different and push myself more... creatively! In this video I try a technique for more abstract images and absolutely love the results! I'm shooting with a Canon R6 and Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 macro lens, handheld in natural light.
