Hi all,
Just curious , I have noticed that people in CS love to take marcos in the night . Just wondering why is it so ?
What is the challenges faced when taking macro photos in the night?

Different insects from the day, some insects only appear in the dark.

one of the biggest challenges is to try to focus your camera on the insect under low lighting condition. that is why many wear a torch light on their head.
