NEW - Digital Macro Book

My new book Digital Close-Up and Macro Photography was published by Focal Press in October 2009. I have wanted for a long time to produce a book on serious close-up and macro photography, dealing with such issues as depth of field and difraction, and the various lighting techniques. I spent the best part of a year writing it, with well over 90% of the images being shot specially. I have put a small selection of images from the book into this gallery.
Amateur Photographer magazine gave the book a 5 star review "..one of the most comprehensible guides we have seen on the subject".
