Micro HHFS TG-5 images
This article features a selection of micro HHFS TG-5 images of plants, flowers and midges captured handheld in my yard. I had a lot of fun pushing my Olympus TG-5 Tough with these handheld in-camera focus stacked (HHFS) micro photographs.
This was one of the few times that I can remember trying the in-camera focus stacking option when shooting in Microscope mode. All images featured in this article are displayed without any cropping at all.
French Polynesia Circa 2006
I was reviewing some old photography files recently and went through some images of French Polynesia circa 2006. These images were captured handheld using a 4 MP Kodak DX6490 zoom camera. As I was re-processing some of these jpeg photographs it occurred to me that some readers may find them of interest.

Creative Expression Through Photography
Every time we pick up a camera, we have the opportunity to exercise our creative expression through photography. The subjects we choose. The lighting that attracts us. The lenses we use. The shooting angles that appeal to us. The camera settings we select. What we decide to do with our images in post. All of these factors help facilitate our creative expression through photography.
Hand-held Macro Flower Images
I brought my Olympus TG-5 with me during our recent trip to Ireland, as a bit of an insurance policy against rainy weather. While it did come in handy a number of times in this regard, I also used it for some hand-held macro flower images. This article shares a selection of hand-held macro flower images captured at the Irish National Stud & Gardens.
