I have neither the time nor the money to get into the fancy (and very well-done) photography that many of you on here can do. However, with iPhone cameras getting better, I think I can take some halfway decent photos of my T's and scorpion. Or at least not potato quality. Do any of you shutterbugs have tips (or websites/AB threads) for taking better photos of my inverts? I'm not naive to think that i can take macro-photography shots, but like I said, I can get better ones than what I have been taking. TIA!

EDIT: Sorry, mods. Didn't even think to look for a better forum to post this.

Whilst I usually take "proper" pics with my camera I still enjoy getting nighttime pics with my iPhone through the enclosures. I use a little LED torch as a spotlight.

I will type though editing, just like in macro photography makes the world of difference.

Here are some of my iPhone at night through the enclosure shots.

There's also clips I've seen on insta that produce pretty good macro shots. They just clip over the lens.
