Even though I know a lot about Photography I havnt heard of Macro Photography before until I joined here where there are photographers aswell. Some of my digital Camaras have a macro photography function where you push the switch up for Macro and down to switch Macro off. But I mainly use my phone or I pad cause the digital arnt very good and I need to get a digital camara more designed for Wildlife photography which also has Macro. I normaly just use Zoom but sometimes I use a phone scope or more accurately Microscope that clips on your phone lense. which magnifys the image to the point you can see little details and take photos of things that would be difficult with binoculars, telescope, or normal zoom. I love zooming in after takeing a photo and haveing a look aswell
A bit of web building going on today ...

Most likely a sawfly, as always, corrections/confirmation are welcome.
And a common green shieldbug, feeding from some dead lavender seed heads...
