Plants and flowers in their very nature are beautifully formed and a joy to look at, and shooting them in macro allows a whole new appreciation of their structures and colours. A strict definition of macro is one in which the size of the subject on the sensor or film is at least as large as the subject itself, although we can be a little looser with that definition here. The aim is to show off our subjects in ways that would not be possible to appreciate with the naked eye.
