Macro Dessert

     With the macro photography theme topic of “You’re making me hungry!” I had a hard time figuring what would be a good photo. For one I like big servings and macro photography is for items that are smaller then 1.37 inches (35 mm), so it was hard. But then this mini peanut butter cup with a small dash of whipped cream looked, tasted and might I say photo’d well.

A Liberty Copy

     I was looking for a statue type photo subject and the Statue of Liberty of course came to my mind first. However I then thought do I really want to drive a long long distance not to mention gas, wear and tear, and of course tolls not to mention ferry costs to get the photo? So then I thought a bit….., OK not much but I remembered this Liberty Copy which would work perfect for the topic of statue and here it is :)
