Photographing Details: Capturing the Cozy

Me Ra Koh

The trick to photographing details is to get in SUPER close.  You are so physically close you almost feel like you are looking at the objects like you would with a magnifying glass, except it’s your smartphone or camera.

I really pushed myself this summer to take more photos with my smartphone, to help me get back to the basics of simple composition and love for imagery.  But I never expected my smartphone to become a tool of creative photo inspiration!  Even at the grocery store, the last of the season’s fruit catches my eye–you’ll see me taking a photo.  🙂

    Fun photos, Me Ra! I love how you took photos of things that we may see all the time but don’t stop to pay attention to. “Cozy” makes me think of mugs of warm drinks, snuggling in blankets, and warm mittens. 🙂

    Love that you are blogging again! :). I’ve missed your words and photos. Can’t wait to hear more about what you’ve been up to!

    Love this – and have been doing this myself without thinking about it! As I knit a sweater for my granddaughter I became so aware of every stitch and how they all work together…not to mention that insane fact that the whole sweater is made from one string!
