Close Up - Image Bank

This photograph is one example of a close up, the photographer has positioned the cat close to the frame then used the zoom lens to capture the look of concentration on the cats face. This close up mode enables the viewers of the photograph to watch the beautiful cat magnified.

This close up shot is magnificent, it is almost scientific in its beauty due to the way it shows the spreading evenly of the water. The water has spread in a way that almost looks as if it has been done on purpose, however it clearly hasn't as this may not even be possible to the naked eye.

I really love close up faces of models as I think its really amazing how well a close up can magnify the looks of someone, each individual feature is shown off just as every individuals features should be, The natural beauty of the human race shown through close up is something I will experiment with in my own close up shoot.

The close up here enables the viewer to see the fine threading that doesn't usually carry a massive cause for fascination however seeing a close up means people really the exact amount of determination that goes into creating a baseball, also the viewers are witnesses to the damage of play on a ball like this which there are in the form of rips.

Again this example of a close up image is almost scientific with it spreading of water, the way the water droplets naturally separate from each other is something new entirely Also the way they reflect the colour and surface underneath like a window to what they are shielding or covering.

Finally this image is an example of how sometimes we need close ups to see just how much time and effort goes into something but also how amazing it is that something is made. In one set of chalk there is probably a million particles of dust that make up about 12 sticks of chalk, these compacted together make chalk and this is only realised when a close up of a chalk stick and chalk dust is studied.
