Macro image clicking is not so tough, just need to more close with the lens to the object. To take the macro image 1st we have to put the camera in the macro mode.

A good macro photography depends on the distance between the object and the camera lens that is called focus distance. A photographer must have to follow some simple rules to take a great and attractive shot. These are listed below:

1. Do not get too close to the object

We have to maintain a minimum distance between the lens and the subject matter, otherwise the image will be hazy or not clear or transparent.

4. Do not block the light sources to the object

Light is the only thing that controls the quality of an image. But in macro photography we will be close to the object. Sometimes it blocks the light to the object, make the object dark. So try to fall as much light as possible and take a clean shot.

5. Use shallow depth of field to add interest to your photo

 A shallow depth of field is nothing but a combination of focal length, aperture, and distance to the subject that we want to click. since the closer you are to the focused area from the camera, the shallower the depth of field to enhance the photograph in a great quality.
