Staying Current

As you improve your grasp of macro photography, your photographic senses and instincts take over, and this book can become more of a source of inspiration than a source of knowledge. You'll start inventing your own tricks to achieve certain photos and will be well on your way to becoming a world-famous photographer — or at least one who can confidently create a macro reproduction of a quality that surpasses the photos in this book.

Perhaps you now give away some of your prints to your friends and family as birthday and Christmas gifts. You might have sold a few images commercially. Your local bar might have a massive print of one of your photographs hanging over the bar. Or perhaps you're just a living legend among your Internet buddies, who compulsively check your Flickr or DeviantArt accounts in the hope that you've posted your next stroke of photographic genius.

Either way, after you've outgrown your masters, it's time to find new ones.
