Fleabane Daisy petals and bokeh
Well, it turns out that having my husband renew his interest in photography is having some interesting immediate benefits to my own photography (besides the companionship, I mean). He saw me struggling to set up my jerry-rigged reverse-lens macro lenses the other day, and a couple of days later I suddenly received, in the mail, the perfect rings to attach my lenses to each other backwards...and one to attach my kit lens to my Canon Rebel backwards.
While experimenting with the new, now easily achieved setup (thank you, sweetie!) I discovered that I now have even greater magnification than I had before.
Here are the petals of a Fleabane Daisy... a wildflower whose petals are about 4 mm long. At my most enlarged magnification, I could only capture the tips of those tiny petals.
Here's one of the images I got.
