Tide pools, Beavertail State Park   Leave a comment

My first time taking the Laowa 24mm probe lens to a tide pool. As a reminder, the tip is waterproof and can be introduced underwater. It has its own light source, and can focus down to 2:1 magnification.

Beavertail State Park is in Jamestown, RI, at the southern tip. Deserves a lot more time — I didn’t know we had sea arches that close by!

Usually, I have to chase my subjects, especially with the razor thin depth of field in macro photography. However, the tide pools were full of shrimp, and the shrimp were full of aggression. The moment I tried to take a photograph, they came right up to the lens, presumably to attack it. Which meant that they were close enough it was tough to get the whole shrimp in the field of view. And a lot of the photographs of other objects had shrimp photobombers.

So very colorful!
