Types of Near Photography

There is little more than general agreement about what
we call the various types of near-focus photography
but it is important to at least have a general idea
of what we are talking about when we go close to
photograph.

Mini-Landscapes

When I go nearer than what we could call general
landscape photography I term small landscapes “minilandscapes”
or natural dioramas. For me this means
I want to include more of the context or surrounding
space to whatever my subject is, like a group of plants
or a shady glen, that idea – a small group shot.

Close-up

This just means close up and short of the full
macro 1:1 photography. This makes up most of
the photography I do, something broader that 1:1
photography.

Macro

Macro generally means any photo that is 1:1 or
greater. “1:1” states that the image on the sensor is
the same size as the live image. If it is equal to that
or larger, it is a macro. However to most people today
macro and close-up photography are the same thing.

Photomicroscopy

The word “macro” generally defines this category
because macro refers to anything greater than 1:1.
However, I reserve this description to studio work done
on a rail with macro lenses. Nothing moves and live
things are usually dead.

Microphotography

Here we are definitely in the studio, perhaps on
an automated focusing rail, a microscope stage,
and using a microscope or at least multiple lenses
hooked one to another. From my point of view this
is interesting but more clinical or at least multiple lenses
hooked one to another. From my point of view this
is interesting but more clinical or scientific that I am
interested in.
