Come on guys and gals, I know you own macro lenses ...

old shooter mechanism from a 35mm slr that got stuck an I took it apart, no I can not assembly it back ... it had been in the drawer collecting dust and humidity for a number of years.

A few w/ the G12.
Good looking the shots folks.

[Frog]

Ok, Jimmy....what's the first shot of?
I suppose it will be obvious after you tell me.

I like the daffodil...did a similar shot many moons ago with film.

[Grandpaw]

How about my clover flower, it is about the size of a regular marble and looks all white when out in the grass. I took this setting on a yellow sticky paper laying on top of the keyboard of my computer using my Nikon 50mm with extension tubes, Jeff

Frog, the first shot is of my new custom made ear buds for my music player. IMO custom ear buds are the only way to go.

[armando_m]

Interesting ear buds!


I suppose they take a mold of your ear to make them ?

and how much outside noise do they block ?

[starriderrick]

The power of... Windex... FujiFilm E550 in macro mode. :blush2:

strawberry dropped in water

my best attempt

shooting into a round glass makes the reflections impossible
the flash gets reflected also on the moving water/air mix
probably need to bounce the flash on something form both sides,
the falsh is on the right, the light from the left is reflected of a white
surface and it is so much softer
