Nature and photography – a common path
First and foremost, I would like to thank my friend Lara, for her willingness to present her readers with the work and the approach of different photographers from all around the world. This leads us to push our limits and give our best.
I cannot wait to talk about my love for nature and photography.
Hello everyone, my name is Jenna Raine, and I am French.
My adventure in the photographic world began when my father gave me my first camera for my 18 years. It was a Minolta x700 film. Today I am using an Olympus OM D. I took my first steps with a film camera, but I recognize that a digital one offers more comfort because of the multiple shots one can take in a few seconds, in order to find the “perfect one”.
The silver film of those times, though, was a very good school to learn how to quickly make manual adjustments.

My early motivation – who would have thought?
Red Autumn
Back then, my motivation was to show my relatives – who avoided being photographed for fear of the outcome – that they were instead very photogenic. Revealing and highlighting their beauty, their charm was my main objective. Usually, my “models” would very much appreciate the end result and ended up gaining confidence in themselves. That was the starting point for my photographic adventure.
Thanks to my parents – who work as pharmacists and herbalists – I have been in touch with nature from a very early age. As the years passed, my love for photography strengthened this bond. The purchase of a * zoom was the final step to get into another universe, the so-called “unnoticed” one.
No end and no beginning – the endless world of nature
Delicate leaves
I am talking about all the beautiful natural things that surround us and that we often fail to notice. It is a universe made of forms, colours, contrasts and lights. An attentive photographer knows that it is their duty to step in and let their eyes and imagination sublimate this hidden beauty.
In this way, we become more and more receptive to the subtle beauty of insects, plants, flowers and the overall environment. What a beautiful way to commune with nature! We are peaceful image hunters, silent admirers, witnesses, explorers of a world that never ceases to amaze us… Nature is so varied that sometimes I feel like I am an interplanetary traveler.
My art therapy – I want to make your souls vibrate
Spring flowers
However, not only is my goal to perfectly reproduce these masterpieces from the vegetal kingdom, but also playing with the above forms, colours and lights and the overall atmosphere in order to release an artistic painting.
I would like such a painting to sublimate reality and bring a whiff of moral well-being to anyone who contemplates it.
I call this my art therapy. Starting from these plant forms, be they a beautiful rose, some seeds or dead leaves, I try to extract the quintessence and create a world where colours are perfectly matched and the form and the appearance of such subjects look differently. All that to let the spirit of an observer lose itself in it. My ultimate goal is to arouse feelings, emotions and leave an impact on anyone stopping by to look at my pictures… I know that everyone has a different reaction and a different perception of the world, but I aspire any observers to find and unearth a detail that makes their souls vibrate.
A quest for positivity – every life has value
Enchanted woods
Creating positive emotions is a way to make my humble contribution to changing a world submerged with negative impressions and information. All it takes is a literal walk in the park on an apparently uninteresting path. Such an ordinary action, can turn into an exploration of a dazzling natural world hiding unsuspected wealth. The photographic adventure that ensues enables me to connect with a serene, profound and basically unlimited natural reign. I call it “my personal yoga”. I just need to walk 100 meters, but actually, it is a path to moral enrichment and relaxation.
What is more, to follow the seasons is a delight not only for a photographer’s eye but also for their spirit. Seasons change and so does our life perception. A sense of humility and deep respect inevitably grows in us for any form of life, as insignificant as it may seem. This is my natural way to re-connect with the essential.
I hope this article gives you a desire to embark on a photographic adventure, if it is not already the case.
Anyway, thank you very much in advance for taking the time to read about my approach to nature photography and -hopefully soon – check my work on Instagram.
Jenna

Hello Jenna, I so much love nature photography. Its so relaxing and beautiful.
Nature photography shows the world the beauty of it. Without nature photography we wouldn’t know how beautiful the world actually is.
Photography as I normally define it is pausing a special moment and bring it back to life. Am a photographer and I love creative and nature shoots.
I don’t do much of portrait but why I love nature photography is you never lack what to snap cause there is natural beauty all around you.
Your pictures are incredibly beautiful and certainly inspiring… Looking at them made my day.
Hello my friend, thank you very much for your words.
I totally agree with your point of view on nature photography. It offers us a chance to discover all the wonders of surrounding nature.
As a creative photographer you understand this subtle approach more than others.
I am very happy that looking at my pictures made your day .
Have a Sunny day my Friend and again many thanks!
Jenna
Hello Jenna,
I found your article very engaging and insightful. Great collection of images.
I remember buying my first Canon Eos and I spent 500 British pound sterling, many years ago. Shortly after, my camera became antiquated with the emergence of digital cameras being rolled out on the market.
I tried to sell my camera so that I could upgrade, but nobody wanted it.
Digital camera technology is certainly the way to go when producing high quality images such as yours.
Thank you for sharing this article and for your perspective.
Hello Paul. First of all, thank you very much for your positive, kind comment. For some time I was disappointed to not be able to use my old Minolta any longer, but today and thanks to rings I can make my old Minolta lenses suitable for my new camera (and I am very happy with the result). If you have kept zooming, do not hesitate to invest in a ring, especially since it ls not expensive (no electronics involved).
I would be very pleased to look at your creations .
Very many thanks again my dear Friend ?
Jenna
Hi Jenna, I like the beauty this write up exudes it a perfect beauty, the images are plainly appealing to the eyes. I have been considering moving around and taking up photography after my degree is bagged, with the hope that whenever I am ready I would be able to find an affordable camera. So I’d like to know what the recommended camera for someone on a low budget can be. Anything else you can recommend apart from the Olympus that you are using?
Regards,
Hello Oneal, I am very glad my photos appealed your eyes and maybe make your soul vibrate. I am sure you can find a camera at a very reasonable price. I was very lucky because I got an Olympus from a dear friend who did not have a photography soul and knew my passion for photography (and also knew that I could not afford to buy an expensive device). Anyway, I bought all of lenses second hand because Olympus is an excellent brand but pretty unaffordable. There are some very reliable websites that sell second-hand equipment and provide a good warranty. Only in this case, Olympus then becomes affordable to me. Alternatively, I can recommend Canon. I find it both affordable and very good quality. You can use rings (they are cheaper) and obtain very good results.
I would like to admire your pictures as well.
Again, very many thanks my dear friend.
Jenna
First of all, WOW! absolutley stunning photography of nature. I can see your passion coming through visually. It is interesting how you say that your passion for photography started at a young age from your father’s first camera gift. My second daughter is 14 years old and that is one of her dreams to be a travelling photographer – as a parent I would love to further ignite her dreams, but think it unwise to give her an expensive camera, such as the ones listed, various versions of the Olympus OM D…can you please advise me to what are the best cameras that I should be looking for to give my teenage “beginner”? and one that can still give her quality shots.
Hello and heartfelt thanks for your sweet words.
I am Very happy you appreciate my article and pics. Actually my passion for photography began around the age of 12 thanks to my mother and an old black and white (argentic photography). It is wonderful to listen to your child and help them in their approach. It is indeed more reasonable to start with a less sophisticated camera and some are in fact cheaper than Olympus. However this brand remains affordable when you buy second-hand equipment with a very good warranty. There are some very good sites for this. I recommend you to buy her a Reflex. Such camera will allow her to learn how to correctly adjust settings while using a good yet affordable device. There are also other brands – like Canon and Nikon – that offer very good photo quality.
Again, very many thanks my dear Friend.
Jenna.
Hi Jenna Raine, I feeling good after reading your article, Because I like nature photography, you shared here amazing beautiful nature photography the great collection of images which represent the beauty of nature, Your photography journey is very interesting and adventurous, which you was started from your 18 years old by Minolta x700 flim, and now you using Olympus OM D. your photo quality says that, your present camera is awesome for photography, it’s inspiring photographers like me. Thank you very much.
Hello Abdullah.
l am so happy you feel good after reading my article. I am always happy to meet someone with such sensitivity to the beauties of nature. If I managed to inspire your photography soul, then I am really glad and I am sure that your creations are imbued with the same sensitivity.
Heartfelt thanks my dear Friend.
Jenna.
Wow, such beautiful pictures of nature. I have a niece who is in love with photography and nature too. She asked me to buy her a camera for her 11th birthday in May but her father doesn’t like the idea. I think I might have to buy her that camera because, I mean, if you can do it and started at 18, then it would be cool to start her as early as possible. I really do love nature and appreciate people like you who bring it closer to us through photography. It isn’t a therapy to you alone and for those who do not have the opportunity to go out there with their cameras to experience it, your photographs give them the opportunity to still experience it. Keep doing what you do Jenna and thank you for it.
Hello my Friend.
First of all, heartfelt thanks for your kindness. I think it is a good idea to start photography early. I was initiated by my mother at the age of 12 with her old argentic camera. As for your niece, it would be great to accompany her through her first steps and let her start taking pictures with your own device, in order to determine her actual motivation. It would be a very nice exchange and your niece could benefit from your experience. She would appreciate your present even more and be beyond grateful. That said, nothing prevents you from giving her a cheaper camera and accompanying her in her photographic journey with your own.
Very many thanks again my dear Friend.
Jenna
Thanks Jenna for your colour and inspiration.My first thoughts are that your pictures are so wonderful and uplifting. Nature offers us so many amazingly beautiful things, thanks to our creator and for people like you who share these amazing images.Your elaborate snaps can bring joy, peace, gratitude and harmony to so many. I like seeing images like yours to help me stop, reflect, admire and be grateful so have followed your instagram for my regular dose of beauty and gratitude.Thank you!
Hello John
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your wonderful words. It is Always so rewarding to meet people with so much sensitivity to the beauties of the Nature and the marvels of the Creator
That encourages me to continue on this path .
Many thanks again my dear Friend ?
Jenna.
What a beautiful combination, Jenna, nature and photography.
I too got into photography at a young age, with my first 35mm camera, all adjustments manual and with relatively expensive film that allowed 24 or 36 shots per roll. Not to mention waiting a week for processing!
So interesting that your early ventures were into persuading reluctant relatives to be photographed and then showing them how good they could look. That sounds as if you could have made a career out of portrait photography. Most of the battle is helping people to relax and look natural. The rest is just technical and can be learned.
Still, you’re so right about the natural world being never ending. The opportunity is boundless.
I loved your attitude of using your photography of nature to create positive emotions as a counter to a world full of negativity. That’s a lovely thought.
Thank you, Jenna, for sharing your beautiful pictures. And to Lara.
Hello Phil
Thank you so very much for all these wonderful compliments.I definitely agree with you on all the battles we can win by helping people to relax and feel confident. But today my main battle is to show how valuable Nature is. My actual goal is to raise awareness of the importance of protecting and respecting it for all the marvels and the gifts it offers us. I am very happy to meet people who understand and share the same approach in their daily life. Thanks again my dear Phil for all of your support and beautiful compliments .
Jenna.
Hi Jenna,
This is all awesome. I love your passion for photography, I see it in the way you express it. I agree with you that nature itself is beautiful.I’m an oil painter, and I’m always out in life doing plein air paintings. And I’m always immersed within my environments. I don’t want to spam here, but if you want to check out some of my work, I can privately send you my website link. Being in nature and painting nature is my ultimate high. Thanks for this article.
Jose
Hello JD
Thank you very much for all of your kind words. It is good to see that we share the same passion for Nature. Immersing in a natural environment is always so good for our inner well-being and our artist’s soul
Again, heartfelt thanks my dear Friend.
Jenna.
These photographs don’t look like photographs, they look like masterpiece pieces of art – paintings, wispy and playful. I absolutely love them. I feel like you literally took something absolutely ordinary and made it into something beyond extraordinary. Gorgeous way to portray nature. I love it. The pink flower with the dew drops is my absolute favorite!
Hello Babsie,
Comparing my photos to a masterpiece or art is a wonderful compliment.
Photographing nature from another angle and sublimating the insignificant is my main objective. Your compliments, in addition to touching me, show me that my goal has been achieved.
Heartfelt thanks for your kindness, my dear friend.
Jenna.
Wow! Those images of nature are all so beautiful and are taken very nicely with the camera. The cameras look nice. Although I never had a camera of my own, buying a quality camera is an item that i would like to have sometime in the future. Do you have anymore suggestions of cameras? I would like to know. Excellent post! Thank you very much for sharing.
Hello Carmeta,
First of all thank you Very much for all of your nice compliments. I am an Olympus fan, but I acknowledge that this brand is quite expensive. For this reason, I only buy second-hand equipment with an excellent guarantee. There are very good sites of second-hand photographic equipment where you can find a very good Reflex or Olympus devices. If you intend to buy a new camera, you can also look for a Canon or a Nikon. Their prices are more reasonable.
Many thanks again my dear Friend.
Jenna
Hi Jenna
I love the way you sparked my interest in a subject I had never really given much thought to.
Your pictures are beautiful and the commentary along with each photograph has inspired me to look into this wonderful niche. You are truly a master at your craft and it is brought to the forefront of your conversation with your audience.
Your guidance along with your skill sets us up to realize the hidden beauty that is all around us. I realize that I need to stop and take interest in my surrounding to the smallest details and the beauty will reveal itself right there in from of me. You are living this beauty through your talented vision. Amazing
Thank for the tour through a hidden world of awe inspiring beauty. You have nailed it.
Murray
Hello my dear Murray,
I am so humbled by your beautiful words. It is so encouraging to know that I achieved my goal by inspiring you to look into these natural hidden beauties that surround us.
Stopping and taking interest in our surrounding is both a very good meditation practice and a way to thank Nature for all of its wonderful gifts. Your gratitude encourages me even more to keep on walking on this path. It is me who should be thanking you for all of your support my dear Friend.
Jenna.
Thanks for sharing your website with us. Taking a picture of nature is a great thing. I think it relaxes you and it relieves stress. With me being diabetic, I have to take a walk through the park to relax. You took great pictures of nature. The pictures look beautiful.
Hello My dear Friend Bigrog
I am so glad you like my art and l appreciate a lot your kind words.
Taking a Picture of Nature is really a beautiful adventure and it is true that Nature relaxes both a photographer and an attentive walker.We should all walk every day in a natural environment to relax and appreciate its marvels.
It is so rewarding to meet Nature both with a camera and without. Likewise it is so rewarding to meet mindful people who appreciate so much Nature pics
Again, heartfelt thanks my dear Friend.
Jenna.
Hey Jenna, great read. Taking a picture is like been able to freeze time to relieve the moment. Been able to capture the beauty of nature is just amazing. There are days when I don’t have a camera on me but my phone is always available and when I come across beautiful sceneries I would bring out my phone and capture it. I never hesitate to do that. It is a great feeling.
Do you have a particular day or time of day when you like to go out and take pictures? I was also wondering if you have ever taken pictures when it is raining. Thanks and congratulations again!
Hello Jay
Thank you very Much for taking the time to read my article.
It is true that a photographer is always ready to capture a moment, a setting, an atmosphere. They – or better said – we are always on the hunt for vibrating, enchanting images. Regarding your question, I like to capture such moments when it rains and indeed there are times when the photos will have a much better rendering according to the light, the exposure or to what I actually want to obtain as a result. I believe we are also light hunters.
Happy photo hunting my dear Friend!
Jenna
Hi Jenna,
Your relatives and I have something in common, I am always afraid of getting my picture taken or being in front of the camera. My profession is acting, how ironic is that?
Us human are and always will be connected to nature. From time to time when I feel that I need to take a break from all the technology (work mostly and social media), I usually go to central park and just have my lunch there. Only just 10 minutes I can feel that I am unwind and connected with nature. We are made for nature not the gadgets.
I love the Delicate leaves, just a perfect picture to portray fall. Enchanted woods is pretty but it is too lonely for me lol
Amazing pictures, I will follow you on instagram 🙂
Hello my Friend Nuttanee,
First of all,thank you very much for your nice comments. I am very glad you appreciate my work.
As for my relatives I want to reassure you about being photogenic. We must always think that if we do not look good in a photo this is not our fault. I would rather blame the photographer who took the picture and did not master the several plays of light or did not value their models’ physical qualities. I only keep beautiful pictures and forget about the others, so I can relate to your fear .This feeling is shared by everyone or so. We all have the same problem in front of a camera.
I agree with you that we were made to be connect to nature. Nature gives us a feeling of relaxation that is just in a different league, compared too many useless technological gadgets.
I will be Very happy to have you as an Instagram follower. See you soon my dear Friend.
And thanks again ?.
Jenna.
Hello Jenna,
This is lovely and inspiring; the pictures are showing the beauty of nature and what God has done for us. Your camera is just too lovely and am very sure the lens are the brain behind these beautiful nature. I always find great articles on Lara’s blog and this particular one is not an exception. I am amazed at the colors!
Thanks for sharing with us such great pictures, they are a breath of fresh air!
Hello my Friend Ola
Heartfelt thanks for taking the time to read my article about my approach to nature, and so many thanks for all of your sincere and beautiful comments.
These compliments touch me a lot and motivate me to improve even more.
Truly humbled by your words, my dear Friend Ola.
One word, Awesome. So much insight in just one article. You can’t just have enough of the beauty nature gives. I’ve plan getting a new camera, perhaps I can start getting stuffs like. No doubt you are a good photographer, judging from this collection of images. i should bookmark this page right away. Good job Jenna.
Hello my dear Faftop. I am Very glad you appreciate so much my article and my pics.
I am an ordinary photographer. Having fun by taking photos is an important goal before determining your style and your trademark. You also need to exactly know what makes you vibrate before sharing it. I will be very happy to discover your photos and follow each other on Instagram if you use it.
Again, very many thanks my dear Friend.
Jenna.
Hi Jenna,
It is really a pleasure to read such a nice article. I love photography and have been fancying buying a camera for a while, but I wonder if I will ever be able to take pictures like yours. I just could not help writing a comment to let you know how good you are. Nature photography is the best photo niche in my opinion. I also appreciate your story and suggestions. I am now inspired as well as motivated after reading your article. Could you please give me some more info about the Olympus OM-D? How hard is it to use? Can a novice like me use it? I saw there are several models, what do you suggest that I buy?
Thanks again for your lovely article. I am going to share your post with my friends. Keep writing like this and keep gifting us with more incredible pictures.
Radeet
Hello my dear Friend Radeetalam,
Thank you for taking the time to read my article. I think that everyone can take very beautiful pictures. It is important to define our goals and what we would like to photograph. Only with that in mind we can perfectly reproduce an atmosphere, a beautiful landscape, plunge into the world of the macro or simply shoot beautiful portraits. A mix of passion and knowledge of some photography rules enable us to take full control of our cameras.
I read a book or two when I started, but for the most part I taught myself how to take pictures. My main motivation was to visually please the people around and made them aware of the wonders of nature. I am a child of the argentic so I always “navigated” in manual mode. Anyway the advantage of having a digital device is also numerical: you can start again as many times as you like. With some good practice though, the first shot can be the good one. If we do not like it, we can always vary some details and shoot again. I also believe that you can become a professional photographer without enrolling in a school. There are some very good books on the market and the online world offers free classes. I must confess that I have not explored all the possibilities of my digital camera, I still need to master it.
The Olympus OMD EM10 is a very good choice.I would suggest that you add a zoom named Zeiko14mm/200mm. This one will improve your picture quality without having resorting to a different lens. The digital and its automatic tuning test will also make things easier for you in the beginning. This camera is a great device and I think you will derive great pleasure by using it. Oh, I will be very happy to discover your own creations on Instagram or on your own website, if you have one.
Again,very many thanks my dear Friend.
Jenna
Photography and nature go together like bread and butter. The two complement one another, and although nature is beautiful on its own through photography it’s detailed beauty can be highlighted in ways that the naked eye often does not discern.
Your images do capture this beauty, and they cause one to take pause and contemplate what is important in this world (at least they do for me). The focus on making money, buying more and more material things, and ‘getting ahead’ so many have these days means they miss the beauty you show us all.
Keep on tapping into your passion and skills for the rest of us, please…I have noted your Instagram account and will follow you. I need pick-me-ups regularly and can get them from your images. Thanks for sharing with us all and enjoy your passion!
Hello my dear Friend Dave
I am glad you enjoyed reading my article and discovering my pics I had the same feeling while reading your beautiful comments.
I agree, photography and nature are as complementary as bread and butter. They also bring us a sweet taste of living in touch with all these wonders that surround us, but that we mostly ignore because of our frantic and beyond materialistic lives. I will be very happy to interact with you on Instagram. Thank you very much for your support. It encourages me to improve myself and to even more share my passion with people who are as sensitive as you.
Again, heartfelt thanks my dear Friend ?
Jenna.
Wow, amazing pictures of the world we live in. The artistic images help me, and others I hope, understand and appreciate the beauty of the world we live in. Your images show the subtle beauty found in close up work as compared to the majestic sweep of large landscape images. All together the images show the importance of being good stewards of our world.
Hello my dear Friend Glen,
First of all, thank you Very Much for your nice words. I appreciate them a lot.
I hav to say that I am always very happy to meet people who are so sensitive to the beauty of nature and aware of the importance of our role as Earth protectors. Your positive feedback strengthens my commitment to make people appreciate the wonders that surround us through my pictures.
Again, heartfelt thanks my dear Friend ?
Jenna.

The art in seeing the potential of a photograph is something I have struggled for many years with. Only once you attempt to capture such a picture or even recreate something that you have seen, do you realize how complex and skillful the photographer really is.
There is something serene in my opinion with taking photos of nature such as these flowers. I have mounted a number of these throughout my home and when you wrote about the calming effect, this has really resonated with me as this is exactly what is added to the room.
Rich
Hello my dear Friend Richard,
Thank you for taking the time to read my article and for taking an interest in my approach. Also thank you for sharing your impressions.
In fact, I may not realize how complex a photographer’s approach can be and the skills it takes, but I am sure that all of this is secondary when you are passionate.
I very much appreciate your comments and wish you all the best, my dear Friend.
Jenna
Thank you Jenna. You have taken photographs on nature into a whole new dimension. These pictures are awesome. Combining your parents pharmaceutical and herbalist passion with your passion for photography definitely has lead to outstanding results. Your photographs are very therapeutic. I love the top most one, red one the best!
My dear Juliette
I am so humbled by your beautiful comments. Moreover, I am very happy that you found a therapeutic interest in my photos because it is indeed the goal that I set. What I do is trying to provide the people who discover my photos with a visual, emotional breath of fresh air. All that in the hope of improving their well-being
Your positive feedback confirms me that my approach is correct and I took the right avenue.
Once again, very many thanks for showing appreciation for my work. It means a lot my dear Friend Juliet.???
Jenna.
Hi Jenna,
Thank you very much for sharing such great pictures with us. To me, it looks like I had never really looked at nature the right way, before running into your article. You depicted a whole new world, it’s fantastic!
I agree with you, without nature photography we wouldn’t know how beautiful the world actually is. You are really encouraging everyone to go out and take some pictures. Thanks again for this awesome post, I’m going to bookmark it and share with my family and friends.
Hello my dear Friend Cpanharun,
Thank you for sharing your impressions and for giving me so many compliments. In fact, nature photography allows us to become aware of the beauties that surround us. I am happy that my article helps people to go out and take pictures being aware of the wonders of this world. Your comments are very encouraging and motivate me even more to continue on my path.
Again, very many thanks my dear Friend.?
Jenna
Good afternoon Jenna,
I would like to start saying thank you to Lara. What a nice idea to have other photographers come on your site to share their story and pictures.
Jenna, your photos have a magical touch. For me, it is not difficult to see some fairies dancing. Your phrase, every life has value is something very deep and true. Nowadays people often do not realize this. With your images you make them see the beauty of nature which will hopefully make them understand our environment needs protection.
Regards, Taetske
Hello my dear Friend Taetske.
First of all, I totally agree with you and share your feelings about Lara’s wonderful work.
It was thanks to her will to let her readers know about other “photographic universes” that I have had the chance to explain my approach and showcase my photos. Thank you Lara for being so sensitive.
That said, thank you very much for your positive feedback, dear Taetske.
It is always a great pleasure to meet sensitive people who appreciate the beauties of Nature being aware of our responsibility to keep nature’s balance.
Again, I am so grateful for your words, you really motivate me to improve more and more.?
Jenna.
Such beautiful photography that evokes such lovely emotions. I must take ages to get perfect shots like these, but you are right digital photography does make things a lot easier, especially for the novice photographers like myself.
I used to have a Canon but sold it when my iPhone technology overtook the Canon and the phone was taking better shots. My friend, however, has just bought a brand new Canon and all I can say is wow. The images she is getting to take are breathtaking.
Hello Michel
First of all, thank you very much for your positive feedback. I am Very glad that my pics conveys such lovely emotions. It is Very encouraging and motivates me more and more to continue on my path.
Secondly you do not need to take ages to get perfect shots and you are right about the various possibilities that digital photography offers. It definitely makes learning to photograph easier (and makes you happy in the process). Knowing some rules, having passion and mastering your camera will help you through even faster. Do not hesitate to plunge again into this photo adventure and we could share our photos with each other :-). I would also like to see your friend’s creations.
Again, very many thanks my dear Michel.
Jenna.
I have read the article carefully and when I read it I felt joy because I love photography. I found the nature pictures you showed us here absolutely great, they represent the beauty of the world. I also find interesting that your journey as a photographer started when you were18 years old with a Minolta x700 film camera that your father gave you for gift. Now you are using an Olympus OM D – which is very good – but it is obvious to me that you have had an amazing evolution… You look like a professional (your pictures are proof of that). Thank you very much for writing this article.
Hello Paul
first of all I want to thank you for your encouragement. I am always very happy to meet someone so sensitive to the beauty of nature. I am not a professional photographer but it is true that my passion has evolved.
I started with a film camera a few years ago, then I put my passion aside for a long time when we switched to digital. Photography was back in my life 3 years ago when a dear friend – who did not have the soul a photography soul – gave me his digital camera for gift.
A few months ago I bought a zoom and so I was able to resume to my photographic adventure. I will be very happy to see your own creations.
See you soon my dear Friend and again, very many thanks for your support.?
Jenna
Hello Jenna,
You just made my day with these wonderful pictures of nature. Nature is the best source of pictures because there are so many things to snap. Nature provide us with a captivating picture. Though it takes interest in nature to see the beauty of this type. When you see many of these beautiful places it relaxes and soothes your nerves.
Thank you for this article I love nature and you depicted it in a way I had never seen it…
Hello my Friend,
I am Very happy that I made your day with my nature pics. It is always a great pleasure to meet people that are sensitive to the marvels of Nature.
Indeed it offers us a deep sense of peace. Nature relaxes and soothes our nerves. It is the epitome of generosity.
Thanks again for your kind comment my dear friend, it really motivates me to improve more and more.?
Jenna
Wow, you certainly have given me a lot to think about. When I was in my early twenties I bought a canon AE1 and took some photos. I never had a zoom lens but I can see how it can really inspire.Your photographs are very beautiful! When you talk about walking in the park I totally understand. I lived right outside of Manhattan for many years and going for a walk in central park was inspiring. I even belong to a bird watcher group that would meet on Sundays.I can see where digital would be the way to go right now.I also understand how you can miss “the good old days” of using film.Anyway, I love your work!
HeHeartfelt thanks for your kind words, my dear Friend Tom.l am Very glad that l gave you a lot of think about.
Having a zoom opens up a lot of possibilities. It is like moving to another universe. it is a wonderful experience and a path to the essential. Another way to get to know ourselves and to know the universe through the microcosm.
I consider birds our little angels on earth. Observing them is a very beautiful pastime and helps us to appreciate and respect all the forms of Life on Earth. A zoom is a very useful tool in order to photograph birds without disturbing them. I would be very happy if you shared your own photos with me in the near future.
Again, very many thanks my dear Tom?
Jenna, I thank you for sharing the joys of your work with us. It must indeed be somewhat of a spiritual journey rather than just a ‘job’ to be able to enter the world of nature so intimately and record it so beautifully. I can see how it would be art therapy for you since it is also so relaxing for me, the viewer, to observe your photographs of nature.
When you first started out, was a camera and an artful eye all you needed? Did you take classes for it? I’m sure it takes some innate artistic talent, because I can’t imagine how you can highlight someone’s beauty and take a flattering picture if they are not photogenic. Are there certain tricks you use?
Thank you again for sharing the lovely photographs!
Hello Sue.
I am so glad you appreciate both my article And my photos. Taking intimate nature images is a spiritual journey.I appreciate even more that my photos provide you with a feeling of serenity. It motivates me to continue on this path. When l started photography l only needed one camera, my eyes and my imagination in order to create my photos. I never took classes. I am a self-taught photographer.
In addition to that, I am sure everyone is photogenic. A photographer must do his job properly. It is very easy to produce a very negative image of a beautiful person if one does not master the play of lights. This is the only “trick” that I use, but I think that it is the most important one. I call it “my best ingredient”.
Again, very many thanks for your positive feedback, my dear friend Sue.
Jenna.
These pictures are absolutely incredible! I feel that most people are so busy in their lives that they never stop to just take in simple things like observing nature.
There is so much beauty to be found in even the simplest of things in nature. It’s important to never forget that.
And as animals of nature, we should pay our respects daily.
Great job on this article!
Hello my Friend Connor
I am very happy that you love my work and I appreciate your support. Perhaps thanks to my photographic experience I will make my little contribution to having people taking time to stop and discover the beauties of nature. Even the simplest, the most insignificant one. I totally share your feelings about paying out our daily respect as animals of Nature.
Respecting nature and its forms is respecting ourselves.
Your compliments encourage me to continue on my path and I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your sincere support.?
Jenna
Your nature and photography images here on Lara’s blog are naturally breathtaking; I must say that Delicate Leaves is my favorite one. Thank you for sharing what you’re creating. Love the words, Jenna, they are rejuvenating, I find the beauty of it all stimulating. truly an inspiration. I’m looking forward to your next demonstration. LeNard
Hello my dear Friend
Thank you very much for all of your beautiful compliments and for taking time to read my article.
It is my turn now to feel stimulated and motivated by your words. Your support means a lot and I am determined to improve and give my best every day.
Sharing my photos is a great pleasure, LeNard.
Again, very many thanks for all of your support, my dear friend. I appreciate it a lot ?
Jenna
Thank you for sharing, I have liked nature photography and photography in general since I was a kid. I loved the photographs here in your article, very beautiful and very inspiring. Photos are memories that last forever and it’s easy to abandon oneself in your beautiful atmospheres. Many congratulations, you are an excellent photographer. Ps. Apart from Instagram are you also on other social networks?
Hello my dear friend Bajram
I am so humbled by your wonderful words. They encourage me to keep going. Photos indeed help us to immortalize both the most beautiful moments in our lives or the most unthinkable marvels of nature.
It is very rewarding to meet people who are so sensitive to Nature.
I am only on Facebook and Instagram for the moment.
Again, very many thanks my dear Friend Bajram ?
Jenna
Hi Jenna, very nice article about nature and photography. I see that taking photographs is your real passion and it`s amazing what nice moments you captured with your camera. Nature is really amazing but many times we just don`t stop and pay attention. Your photos are really beautiful, I wish that you will catch many great moments with your camera in your future, thanks for sharing with us!
Hello my dear Luke,
Heartfelt thanks for all of your beautiful comments.
Indeed, I am very passionate about the world of images, colours, lights and especially nature beauties as insignificant as they may seem. It is worth going too far to take the time to discover and contemplate the wonders of Mother Nature. Our adventure can begin as soon as we leave our home, as soon as we take the time to stop and look at a plant, an insect, a bird, or anything else, even the most unthinkable thing. This exploration is very enriching and rewarding.
Again, very many your support my dear Luke.?
There’s nothing more beautiful than the photography of nature and your photos are no exception. Like you say, its so easy not to notice the beauty around us, especially when we see these things every day. We become immune to them. We need photographers like you to help us open our eyes to what’s around us. Keep at it!
Hello my dear Rose
I am very touched by your comment. Thank you for taking the time to read my article and enjoy my photos. It is really encouraging. Indeed we are no longer paying attention to our environment by dint of observing it every day. On the contrary, we must become explorers of the present moment, refresh our eyes and let nature amaze us. It is the best way to happily live our daily lives. Let us find our children’s eyes once again… I would be so happy if I could help people change their vision of the world.
Again, heartfel thanks for your support my dear Rose.?
Jenna.
Hi Jenna! Thank you very much for sharing your story with us. It has been inspiring, specifically for me because I’m giving my first steps in photography.
I have a more or less similar story trying to photograph members of my family and trying my best to see them enjoy the final results.
And I have also developed love towards this unnoticed world that’s daily around us. I’ll follow you on Instagram. And will be on the watch out to continue learning from your work. Thank you very much!
Hello my dear Henry.
I am very glad you enjoyed my story. I see we have a similar path. Indeed it is very gratifying to please someone by making them look good in a picture. I will be very happy to discover your creations and also to follow each other on Instagram.
Thank you Very much for your positive feedback and your support on Instagram. It encourages me to improve more and more.See you soon ?
Jenna.
Hi Jenna!
A great article I must say. it’s really engaging especially the pictures of those beautiful flowers that come along the article. it’s makes the information really insightful and helpful. I love pictures and I’m also a lover of photographs. It really makes me recall my past experience. I really key into that photograph that comes with the article. Thanks for this piece of information.
Hello my dear Tony
Thank you Very much for taking the time to read my article.l am very happy that you appreciate my photos.Your positive feedback is really rewarding and motivates me to continue on my path.
Again, heartfelt thanks for your support, my dear Tony.?
Jenna.
Hi Jenna,
Thank you for writing this awesome article about nature and photography. I always love to see the rare moment that a nature photography can capture. I know this type of photography is not easy but the result is unforgettable. I also believe a good quality HD camera also needed for this kind of photography. If I misunderstood, please tell me further on this topic. I would also like to know your suggestions of using the best camera. All of your pictures are awesome, thanks for sharing them.
Hello my dear Friend
I quite agree with you about seeing the rare moment that pictures of nature can capture.It is a rewarding experience that helps us re-connect with Nature and its marvels. Furthermore, we really go on the hunt for the perfect pic, the on that will make us strongly vibrate. Regarding my suggestions: having a good camera can be interesting, but adding our own imagination, knowing some rules and passion for photograohy are needed. This seems to be the case for you.
Actually my favourite camera is Olympus because I know mine by heart… To the extent that I always work in manual mode. I appreciate Olympus lens quality, but Canon and Nikon are also very good.
Reflex or hybrid? That is an important question… Olympus’s lenses are compact, light and high quality for me. I will be very happy to look at your own pics.
Very many thanks for your positive feedback my Friend. It motivates me to continue on my path.?
Jenna
Hello Jenna,
I just read “Nature and Photography – a Common Path” and found it beautifully written. The amazing photos capture your written imagery so well! Here in Colorado, we are surrounded by beautiful BIG scenery, but it’s good to be reminded that beauty is all around, from the simple dandelions right on my front step to the budding green leaves on the trees in the yard. I can understand wanting to capture those little moments that surround us every day. Thank you for such an uplifting article.
Hello my dear Friend
I am always very happy to meet people are both sensitive and aware of the beautiful world that surrounds us, even when it comes to tiny details. We can find beauty anywhere. A simple dandelion is a universe in itself that deserves our respect and love as much as the most beautiful tree in the world. Nothing is insignificant on earth. And to me, every form of life is sacred.
Thank you so much for your nice comments, you really motivate me to continue on my path.?
Jenna
It’s great to be on Lara’s site again, to read another post of her photofriends. Awesome pictures and captions you got here, Jenna. The overall post is great, I must say. I love nature photography and always love to get my eyes on all I could find on the Internet, in order to draw inspiration and create wallpapers. I guess I am updating my wallpaper gallery this very moment.
Hello my dear Friend Ayodeji
Thank you very much for your kindness, I really appreciate your support. It is always a Great pleasure for me to meet artistic nature creators. I will be very happy to see your wallpapers as soon as you finish updating your gallery.
Again very many thanks, my dear Friend.?
Jenna
Hi Jenna, you have a wonderful talent. I’ve always appreciated a photographer who can bring out the unique beauty in their model. While not all people like being captured on film, for whatever reason, it is the empathy and keen eye of the photographer that can bring out the most beautiful and vulnerable aspects of all resulting in an image that captures us in a moment but can last a lifetime.
I love your comment that “nature is so varied that sometimes I feel like I am interplanetary traveller” – that made me smile because I feel that way when I am lost in nature too. Its diversity is captivating.
Thanks for sharing your craft with us all.
Hello my dear Friend Mélissa
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, thank you for these lovely compliments! It is always a pleasure to meet nature explorers who are also aware of its wonders. it is useless to go to the other end of the universe to realize that the wonderful, the incredible and even the unknown are there before our eyes. It is up to us to open our heart and care even more to appreciate even more all these invaluable marvels Mother Nature has to offer.
Again, heartfelt thanks for your sweet words, my dear Melissa. ?
Jenna.
Hi Jenna (and Lara)!
It’s so nice to read how you started with photography just to show your relatives that they were beautiful! And I absolutely love your nature pictures. It reminds us that nature is beautiful and fragile and needs our protection. These photos make me emotional :-). I smile and feel better about the day before me. We are just tiny humans, parts of the mighty universe.
Great work!
Hello my dear Friend Mary,
It is always a great pleasure to meet someone who is so sensitive to the beauty of nature and at the same time aware of its fragility. Your compliments make me very happy and encourage me to continue on my path. I am very happy that I was able to convey beautiful emotions to you. Photography is indeed a way for me to also sensitize people to the wonders of nature, something that we must save and protect at all costs.
A big thank you from the bottom of my heart, Mary.?
Jenna
Hi Jenna. This is wonderful. I like nature photography,so much. It is so much pure and beautiful. Your image collection here is eye-candy. I remember when my friend had just bought his first Canon camera, He spent $550 on it. I remember how pleasant it was using his camera for taking nature pictures during my Summer holidays.
So much nostalgia!
Hello dear Kehinde Segun.
A big thank you for your nice compliments. I always derive great pleasure from meeting people who are sensitive to the beauties of nature and amateur photos. I understand your nostalgia. At one point, I was disappointed to not be able to take photographs. With the switchover to digital I dropped photography for years. I resumed it only 3 years ago, thanks to a dear friend who gave me his digital camera… And his support.
it would be easier for you to get back to photography by buying some used equipment. I buy all my second-hand lenses with an excellent guarantee. There are some very good websites. Why not giving it a try?
I would be very happy to look at your own pics.
Again, very many thanks my dear Friend ?
Jenna
Nice article you post there on nature and photography and I also like your pictures so much… So many breathtaking atmospheres!
I agree with all you said in the article ,because I see photography as wonderful, safe, and natural self-esteem booster. I also see photography as documents of the human journey through life.
Taking nature photographs is like documenting Mother Nature around us. An amazing writeup we have here. I will go and see some of your works on Instagram!
Hello my dear Friend
First of all, a big thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of your wonderful compliments. It is always a great pleasure to meet people who are also aware of the benefits and wonders of Mother Nature. Indeed life on Earth is a great trip and photographs are there to illustrate this journey next to the natural beauties that surround us, as simple as they are.
Again very many thanks for your support.?
Jenna.
Almost any photograph is part of nature Be it wild life or an outdoor shoot of a beautiful woman body, they are all part of the amazing beauty of nature. I am an amateur photographer and use my free time to do some outdoor photography with my Nikon D7000. I enjoyed reading your post and agree with you completely.
Heartfelt thanks my dear Friend Sanjay for taking the time to read my article .
I am very glad that you share my thoughts about the several, amazing natural beauties that surround us.
If you use your free time to do some outdoor photography, I would be very happy to look at your personal creations.
Again, very many thanks for your positive feedback, my dear friend. Your support motivates me to continue on my path. ?
Jenna.
WOW Jenna! These are so beautiful. I so love nature, I think nothing can compare to its natural beauty. I love your photography work. They’re amazing. You could frame these, I’m sure a lot of people would love to have these. I will definitely check out more of your work in your instagram.
Hello my dear friend,
Very many thanks from the bottom of my heart for all of your Amazing compliments. Your words are really rewarding and encourage me to improve more and more, and keep on sharing my photos in order to convey positive feelings and emotions. Very glad to meet people like you who are sensitive to natural beauties.
Also many thanks for supporting me on Instagram I will be very pleased to interact with you.?
Jenna
I absolutely loved reading this! It was very inspiring and uplifting! I also appreciate the exquisite photos you provided on Lara’s site. I have just started in to the addicting world of photography and I just love it! Not only do I enjoy going out and taking amazing photos but I also love the learning process that goes with it. Thank you for the inspiration!
Hello my dear Randy
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of your kind words. I am very happy to be a little inspiration for you. Welcome to the addictive world of photography.
I would love to look at your own creations. Do not hesitate to share them on Instagram, it would be a great pleasure to interact with you there too.
Again a big thank you for your encouragement. It motivates me to continue on my path.?
Jenna
Hello Jenna,
Photography has always been my area of interest while growing up. My dad even got me a small camera then, was really excited. Nature photography is beautiful and mind blowing. These pictures you uploaded are really beautiful and amazing. Though have not been taking photographs recently as I have diverted into online activities but am planning to go back into it and even have a studio. Thanks for sharing this.
Hello my dear Olalekan
Heartfelt thanks for your kind support. You are quite right about the wonderful and mind blowing world of Nature photography.
It is a world that continues to amaze us both with its variety and with its generosity. These are invaluable resources that we need to protect. A photographer’s role – as a witness – can help nature to be loved and respected even more.
I will be very happy to look at your own photos and why not connect on Instagram.
Again very many for your sweet words, my dear Olalekan.?
Jenna
Hello Jenna,
I think that nature and photography tend to be mentioned in the same breath. A photographer, whether professional or not should have a way of relating with nature and its beauty. From exploring various opportunities to bond with nature to pushing the limits of photography, nature has its way of communicating so all we have to do is appreciate and capture the limits.
You did this beautifully and my hat goes off to you.
Hello my dear Ennymatics
First of all, a big thank you for your compliments. They brightened my day and encouraged me to continue on this path.
On the other hand, I totally share your opinion about this relationship between photographers and the world of nature. There is a real communication between the two “parts”. I really feel connected to this wonderful world that we absolutely must respect and protect… As a witness I know that I can help protecting nature by showing both its hidden gems and its fragile balance. My goal is to make people aware.
Again, very many thanks, my dear Ennymatics ?
Jenna
The photos are very nice I love the way you captured the images here. I noticed you mention you are French. I like how you convey your message here. It’s very inspiring and very engaging the way you compare everyday beauty with photography. You also mention perspective and how differently each and every one of us sees the world. I like the stories you share about your family it’s all really very deep!!!
Hello my dear Friend.
Thank you very much for taking the time to read my story and showing appreciation. It is very gratifying to know that my article has touched and inspired you. I try to combine photography with the beauty of the natural world, in the hope to convey my perception.
Again, very many thanks for your positive feedback, it motivates me to continue on this path.?
Jenna.
I am glad I stumbled into your post. Your story is catchy and inspiring. It reminded me of my college friend. We bought an old Nikkei which we used to compliment our purse in school. Unfortunately I didn’t pursue the carrier in photography but today my friend is a successfully photographer. I wouldn’t know the version of camera GE uses now, but I have shared your wonderful post with him.
Hello my dear Friend Paschal
Thank you Very much for your nice words and sincere support. I am excited that I was able to inspire you. I hope you will resume taking pictures again. Looking at your own pics would make me very happy. For the moment I would be very pleased to see your friend’s captures and why not also to connect with him. I am sure he could inspire me too.
Again, very many thanks for your positive feedback, my dear friend.?
Jenna
As usual some very good posts on Lara’s blog. You are very passionate about photography and so are your guests. Jenna you have some beautiful pictures here accompanied by a very interesting storyline.
I have never had an Olympus digital camera before, but I think that might change in the near future.
I need to feel the rush of passion and the fire that burns within my photography soul and definitely your photos help a lot.
Hello my dear Charles.
I also thank Lara for allowing me to write an article on her blog and meet so many people who are both sensitive to the wonders of nature and also passionate about photography. I am very happy that you like my work, it encourages me to continue on my path. If I was able inspire you to engage in a future photographic adventure, then I am beyond happy and I will be even more by visiting your future photo gallery. So please do not hesitate and Olympus is indeed a quality brand for a passionate individual like you.
Again, very many thanks my dear Friend .?
Jenna
Hello Jenna Raine :),
I love how you capture and make nature look so amazing and beautiful, you really do have an eye and camera for beauty.
I have always loved looking at nature photography and would follow your instagram account to see more of your beautiful works.
Thanks alot for a beautiful piece.
Hello my dear Friend
I am so humbled by your sweet words. They encourage me to continue on my path.
It is so rewarding to meet people who are sensitive to natural beauties. Oh and I am also very glad that you like my pics.
It is a joy to hear that you want to connect with me on Instagram. It will be nice to interact and appreciate each other’s creations.
Again, very many thanks my dear Friend ?
Jenna
Hi Jenna, thank you for this very interesting post. I must say you have done an excellent job by creating time to put up this awesome article. I so much love nature photography. I have a Canon camera which was presented to me as a gift by my father three years ago when I just graduated from the university. I have since then started photography though in a low key level since I am not a professional. Photography has since formed an integral part of my life and I love it.
Hello my dear friend AbiodumS
Thank you for taking the time to read my article. I am always very happy to meet people who appreciate to my approach and are also passionate about the world of photography. I will be very happy to look at your own creations. Your father gave you a wonderful gift, and you do not have to be a professional to take beautiful pictures. Knowing some rules and having passion, imagination, and love for your subject, are the necessary ingredients to take beautiful shots.
Again, very many thanks for your kindness, my dear Friend.?
Jenna.
Thank you Jenna for the miniature adventure. I am a big fan of photography and I cannot express in text completely how I feel about your works on the article. I loved them. The topic is a good one. I believe that photography especially in recent times with better tech cameras have to come to expose all to nature and draw out more appreciation from the hearts of more persons. People like you are to be credited for adding spice to nature. Now I don’t have to go into the amazonian jungle to appreciate nature but I can do that sitting in my living room thanks to you Jenna. And I love love love how you edited the spring flower picture. Very soulful
Hello my dear Friend Momoh,
Heartfelt thanks for all of your amazing comments. I am Very happy that you appreciate so much both my article and my pics.
It is always so rewarding to meet people who are sensitive to Nature. I definitely agree with you about finding natural marvels close to where we live, thanks to nature photographes who share their personal work.
Your sweet words are incredibly encouraging and will do my best to keep on providing vibrating nature shots.
Again, very many thanks, my dear Friend ?
Jenna.
Very nice article and great photographs you have there. I remember when my dad had bought me an SLR camera but I never used it to it’s full potential because I was always frustrated with using film. Recently I got a DSLR and i had the chance to see the world of photography from a completely different perspective. I am slowly becoming a fan of it.
Hello my dear Friend Stratos,
I cannot thank you enough for your kind compliments. I really appreciate them. Your support helps me keep going and try to push my limits.
I am sure that you will experience a rewarding feeling with digital. Your perspective will get better and better .
I will be delighted to look at your creations, and it would be great if you started an Instagram account to share them (if this is not the case, already).
Again, very many thanks my dear for your support, my dear friend. ?
Jenna
I truly enjoyed the pictures of yours, Jenna! Your story really inspired me to truly pick up photography one day myself. In truth, I have every reason to and even my husband succumbed to my whims and bought me a camera. We needed one for ‘basic picture stuff’ anyway, as all we had was that on our smartphones. But having a baby growing up, at least for me, really asks for something a bit more than just a smartphone to take pictures.
I love the fact that you find beauty even in the ordinary. I feel that is key for a really great life.
Pardon my asking, so how long you’ve been into photographing now?
Have a Wonderful Day!
Rasa
Hello my dear Friend Rasa
I am very happy you enjoyed my pics and found my story really inspiring.
I am thrilled to have inspired you to the extent that you want to pick-up photography yourself. Your husband did the right thing by to succumbing to your whims, and buying you a camera. It was a very good whim and you are going to derive a lot of pleasure from from immortalizing your baby’s childhood.
Indeed nothing is ordinary in our life.Beauty is everywhere.Just take the time to sit down and observe the things that surround us.
And finding beauty even in ordinary is really Key for a rewarding life.I share your feeling my dear Rasa.
To answer your question, I resumed photography three years ago, after a long break.
I did not do photography at all for almost fifteen years, upon the arrival of digital.
I was a film photography’s child.
Again, very many thanks my dear Rasa for your kind comments. I will be delighted to look at your own pics and why not, to connect on Instagram.
Jenna
There was a time in my life when I wanted to photograph for a living. I later found though some even more deep-rooted passions of mine. And this is now what I’m doing. However, I never really lost the marvel for awesome pictures. I absolutely loved yours.
I somehow feel you’ve found your purpose with this. You’ve really given it a thought. And it aligns perfectly for you.
From what my mentors have taught me and what I do feel myself is that these are the prerequisites of doing something really great with your life, Jenna.
Keep it up! And have a Great One!
Take Care!
Matiss
Hello my dear Friend Matiss,
heartfelt thanks from the bottom of my heart for all of your kind comments. It is so rewarding to meet people who are so enthusiastic about my work. It definitely motivates me to keep up pursuing my dreams.
Again, very many thanks, my dear Matiss.?
Jenna
Wow, I am in awe at the beautiful photography. I love pictures of natural beauty and so this appeals to me. Do you sell your photography, and can I recommend a certain type, say of the beach or something like that? I would love to have some really good photos to hang on my wall of beach related scenes. Would this be possible?
Hello my dear Friend Matt’s Mom,
Thank you very much for your compliments. Your support motivates me to keep on describing Nature beauties through my pictures.
As per your request, I am afraid I will not be able to fulfill. Anyway, I can recommend you my dear friend Lara’s wonderful pictures. I am really bewitched by her magical creations. Lara takes pictures whose subjects are closer to your interest range.
Agai, very many thanks for your kindness.?
Jenna.
Excellent macro photos.
For the purpose of my online business, I was forced to study the various digital cameras. I needed urgently a cheap option to take macro photos.
The key was the realization that I can use the old analog manual lenses on modern digital cameras. You can find an excellent analog lens from $50 – $100.
And now I have at least 10 great old manual lenses, which with the help of macro rings are almost perfect for my macro needs.
I’m just interested in what lenses do you use.
Have a nice day,
Leo
Heartfelt thanks for your compliments, my dear friend Leo. In order too answer your question, I only use an Olympus Zoom14mm/150mm. You can also add a magnifying lens. I also use an old manual lens with a ring.They are really cheaper and provide excellent pics.
It would be a great pleasure for me to look at your own creations on Instagram.
Agai, very many thanks my dear Friend Leo.
Jenna
