Intense observation of small things reveals insights into both the thing observed and the greater whole.
Equally importantly, it reveals insights in and into the observer. Physicists talk about how the act of observation changes the experiment. But the act of observation changes the observer too. You could describe it as a form of active meditation.
Observing detail using photography enforces discipline and focuses attention (pun intended).
Closeup, macro, and micro photography present technical challenges.
Getting a successful result means a more intense involvement with both the thing observed and the process.
