Recently I was gifted a Moment macro lens to use on my iPad for photos (a big thank-you to the gracious person who sent it to me), and I’ve been experimenting with it for a few days. It’s unlike anything I’ve used before with photography, except for the fact that it is a macro lens and is able to focus on quite small objects.
Using the lens on my iPad is a bit different than using an actual camera – the lens can’t really be focused, more held up to the subject to make a clear image. Because it’s a macro lens, this means pretty much touching the hood of the lens to whatever you want to capture. This can prove tricky in some situations, but the results impress me.
I tried the lens on mainly capturing microscopic lichens on branches around my yard, and it’s pretty incredible to see the detail in these tiny worlds. I hope these photos of the un-regarded and unseen inspire some wonder in you today.













Nice job, Hazel!
Very cool and inspiring Hazel! I like the details you point out, I would not have known that was a cedar bough…Thanks for the beauty you bring to me regularly…
Thanks, Do!
All are awesome views of the diversity of nature! The sap drop and snowflake photos are extreme works of art! These would make fantastic blow ups to hang in art galleries or homes!
Thanks Gramps!
