lets get intimate;
Let’s get up close & personal, strip down & bare ourselves. There’s a burning desire to see you for exactly how you are and feel you against my skin. I want to see your imperfections and smell your scents, scents so intoxicating you can almost taste them. Who knew macro could be so consuming; welcome to Macro Monday.

As far as next weeks challenge goes, put a mask on that hunk of yours and take his picture. :):)

You made the flowers more beautiful with the macro shots. You and your camera make a wonderful pair.
What flower is the purple one?

I almost hate you for living around such beautiful scenery. Even in spring it doesn’t look like that here. I know that tanning beds are horrible for you, but it helps me so much during the winter time. You already know that I have issues with depression, but it gets alot worse when the seasons change and it gets cold. Getting in the tanning bed every once and a while makes me feel better. Not just the warmth from the light, but I actually feel better and more self confident when I have a nice tan. My mom owns one. I didn’t use it one single time this spring and summer, and only did 3 times this week. It helps get me through the tough months and keeps me happy… That’s why I do it. It might be bad for you, but I highly doubt walking around wishing a plane would crash into your head is very healthy either! LOL!

You have caught the heady fever of marcro-itis. My fave of this group? Would have to be second from bottom. I like the dof and the textures created. This has personality.

Great series Chloe.
I know how you can get consumed by photographing flowers.
I really like the shot second from the bottom, nice DOF and warmth.
