Forensic science is the investigation of which science is applied to criminal and civil laws. Macro photography can help in this field of science by digitizing firearms cases, examining tool marks, and inspecting artifacts. By digitizing firearms cases, the police and forensic scientists can use the photos to learn something about their suspect, or get fingerprints. It can help get fingerprints by taking super up close photos on whatever tool their suspect might have been using. Speaking of tools, macro photos can also help examine tool marks. If your suspect had a runaway car or a gun, then macro photos can help. The police can transfer the macro photos of tool marks or tracks to a 3D program to help discover what might’ve happened and how they can track their suspect(s). Inspecting artifacts is another job for macro photography. It can help by showing the perfections and imperfections in artifacts, and help to see if anyone would want to or has stolen it and if it might happen again. Forensics is a great way to put macro photography, a scientific tool, to use.
