MacroPhotography - My little wise owl from Greece

in macrophotography •  7 years ago  (edited)

This tiny owl is made of copper and have glass eyes, only 3 cm tall. This is a souvenir from Greece i've got from one of my friends.

In Greek mythology, the owl was the sacred animal of Pallas Athena (the Goddess of Wisdom) and symbolizes knowledge and wisdom. Athena also known as "owl eyed" - the huge eyes of the owl are an expression of insight into things. From this mythological aspect, the popular belief is that the owl is wise and the saying is "wise as the owl". People often associate with witchcraft, healing, weather, birth, and death.
According to spirituality, the owl is a symbol of the soul free of karma, who is able to see clearly in the darkness. The human soul, with the open consciousness, is able to get out of his body through the crown chakra.

These photos were taken with my Panasonic FZ-82 + Raynox macro lens. Click on the images to see them in full resolution!

:-)

Really cool gift... And also lovely and funny... In pictures light was used well and pictures are clean and colors are pop out... I like them a specially eyes of the owl...

Congrats and have a nice day....

Hehe, that series of pics feels like one of those meme-like eye-zoom in with dramatic music things :) Thanks for sharing!

Hahaha, really! The last picture in addition, is blurred, only a fluff looks sharp on the eye.

Yeah, when a lens goes into true 1:1 macro, depth of field gets super small. To get some of those super awesome macro bug shots people have to use a lot of light so they can get more depth.
