Macro
A term that is typically used to describe the types of photographic gear that enable the photographer to go closer to the subject of the photograph than is customary in order to produce a larger image of the subject. Historically speaking, the term "macro" refers to when the recorded image is life-size or larger than life-size, with a magnification ratio that is 1:1 or greater, such as when using macro lenses. This is the definition of a macro photograph.
