Macro Photography is quite addictive. Well, you don’t need to worry about the harsh weather and off course the sandstorm which is been quite as a ritual here. We can choose any subject for macro. In Point & Shoot (PS) camera we have little control on aperture and shutter priority mode but most PS camera have a dedicated mode for macro or close-up photography. In DSLR camera we need to use the Aperture priority mode or still better if we use the Manual mode to achieve sharp focus. To get a shallow DOF (depth of field), it is very important to choose a large aperture (small f number) available. If the subject is moving or is in action, you may need to control the shutter speed to freeze the action. Also depending on the situation you may need to use the Flash. The most important criteria in DSLR camera is the choice of lenses.
