Macro lenses are capable of focussing at extremely short distances (some as little as a few centimetres), allowing the photographer to get very close to the subject. lenses reproduce small subjects larger than life, ideal for capturing small insects as they bustle at dusk, or even textures and patterns with an artsy flair. Macro lenses magnify small objects allowing a more breathable “working distance” between you and your subject. This makes for a more natural scene free of a photographer's imposing presence.
