Welcome to Blogs of Photogs! Blogs of Photogs is owned by Mary Hanson, of Mary Hanson Photography. I welcome readers and other photographers to submit their blog, or blogs they admire, to be reviewed. There is a long list, and it takes a tremendous amount of time to visit, read, and review so many great (or not-so-great) photography blogs. If you have emailed rest assured you are in the list. Some keys to getting reviewed are: updating your blog often, having beautiful photography, writing more than just a two word description about your photos, having the "bugs" worked out of your blog (links that are broken or images that don't load are too frustrating to send hundreds of readers to visit...) and a sense of humor helps too. :) Thanks for enjoying my project!

Also, I encourage you to visit and support our sponsors of the blog, as they help pay for the costs and upkeep of the site, and are great vendors! Email if you are interested in becoming a sponsor. Opportunities are limited within similar categories.

#124…Macro photography

I don’t think I have ever featured two photographers in the same post…but that is what I’m doing today. I went looking for some great Macro photography work, and found dozens of amazingly talented photographers with outstanding macro portfolios. However, something about these two just really stuck out to me the most: Martin Amm who took this extraordinary macro photo of a red veined darter covered in morning dew:

Martin’s photo above is probably my most favorite Macro ever. Just stunning!

And the second photographer is Brian Valentine you can see his work on photo box gallery by clicking his name, or on flickr here. Brian has loads of great macros of flies, flowers, snowflakes, & dew drops, two I really enjoyed were these:
