Macro Images of Christmas Cards

I always use Christmas cards from years past when I decorate for Christmas; they are becoming more and more historical each year since not many people send cards these days. This year I decided to take a different look at them…photograph them through a macro lens.

The pixilation on the simple color images is obvious. The parts that looked more interesting to me were the metallic portions: flecks of glitter, metallic blobs, raised shapes in the paper covered with metallic paint and then combinations of color surrounded by metallic puddles.  Enjoy the macro views of Christmas cards!
