In macro photography, the smallest details take center stage, offering a whole new perspective on cannabis concentrates. My approach pairs a DSLR on a motorized stack shot rail with strobe lighting, taking numerous photos at different focal points. These images are written directly to an internal hard drive in a tethered workflow, speeding up the process and giving immediate feedback.
The captured images, each unveiling a unique facet of the concentrate, are then merged using specialized software, creating an image of immense detail and clarity. This composite is further refined and enhanced in Photoshop, striking a balance between technical precision and artistic interpretation. The final product? An image that not only captures the microscopic world of cannabis concentrates in all its glory but also brings an element of luxury to the table.
