Exhibition Night – “Macro/Close-Up” Jan 25
31 January 2025 @ 19:00 - 21:30
We kick off 2025 with one of the popular themes amongst members “Macro Close Up”. This print exhibition never fails to provide great imagery for viewing.
Brief – Macro
Entries for this theme will depict the following description.
Macro photography is a form of close-up photography, originally developed for scientific research. The strictest definition of macro photography is that the subject is photographed at 1:1 magnification—in other words, the subject is life-sized in the photo. However, most people use the term “macro photography” to refer to any photograph that depicts a close-up and extremely detailed image of a small subject.
