Macro phoneography, getting up close and personal, getting an eyeful in your view finder. I sometimes feel like Sherlock Holmes when out in search of a photo in macro, phone held up close to my eye, and narrowing in on my subject. These stems in a clear glass vase seemed mysterious and beckoned me in for a closer view. So colorful and bright up top, but under water, only the shadow knows.
More macro photos can be found on the blog challenge Phoneography and Non-SLR Digital Devices Photo Challenge by Lens and Pens by Sally.

This has an eerie quality to it, Angeline, like it’s from a 50’s horror flick. Perhaps it’s the home of the Creature from the Black Lagoon. Had it not been a macro shot, I doubt there’d be any mystery to it at all. Nicely done.

This looks mysterious…maybe there is a clue to solve a crime…just like Sherlock Holmes. Great post. 🙂

Lovely underwater images. Despite being taken through a glass vase, the photo really looks like an underwater photo. Those blues are delightful.

Thanks, Otto. I get a little short of breath when I look at it too long, I hold my breath, feeling like I am underwater. I’m glad you like the blue.
