Here’s another iPhone shot from my work.
I was driving a different truck today and noticed someone had dressed up the Bulldog Mack on the hood in blue with a red superhero cape. As I drove, the cape flapped in the wind like Superman!
When I was back in the yard at the end of the day I snapped this iPhone (macro HDR) shot.

Looking around the house for a bit of photographic inspiration, I thought I’d get up nice and close to this lolly jar for a macro shot. Sure it’s nothing to get excited about, but sometimes getting a different point of view to the everyday things around us can make a photo with a difference.

I’ve mentioned a couple of times in this blog that I like to take pictures of technology and gadgets. Whether its a new camera, lens, smart phone, home entertainment gear, or documenting computer builds, good macro photography can show off the design beauty of today’s modern technology. 
In-fact, I’ve got a dedicated folder on my photo site for this type of photography – simonsphotosite.com/Cameras-and-Tech
Yesterday we had Foxtel pay TV installed in our house. The professionalism (and courtesy) of the installers was not up to the standard I would have expected, so as I was tidying up their work I had the DSLR handy to snap a few pics of our new gear. simonsphotosite.com/Cameras-and-Tech/Foxtel-Install

This week was my 15th wedding anniversary and my lovely wife, Mandy, gave me a traditional fob-watch. I love taking photos of any new gadgets I get my hands on, and this watch was no exception, so I screwed on the macro lens and started snapping. I also took the opportunity to dig out my father’s old wrist watch and my grandfather’s fob-watch for some close up pics as well.
