Both of these photos represent macro photos. This is when a camera reveals a part of life that we typically do not see. Macro photos are pictures close up to objects. I think these types of pictures are so interesting because they are new to our eyes. To see the fine detail of a bee flying, or to get up close and personal to a butterfly landing on a tree is what intrigues me. Ever since I've started taking pictures macro photography has always been one of my favorite categories. It opens a whole new world that we aren't used to.
