Daniel Marsh
Macro Naturalist & Educator
Daniel has spent twelve years photographing specimens most people walk past without a second glance — the underside of a lichen, the joinery of a jumping spider's chelicerae, morning condensation on a single strand of orb-weaver silk.
His work has appeared in BBC Wildlife, National Geographic online, and three consecutive years of WPOY Close-Up shortlists.

Module 07 — Post-Processing
The edit is
half the image.
Screen recordings walk you through every slider — how to recover micro-detail in pollen grains, how to use radial masks to pull focus back to where the eye should land, and when to stop.
