A Greenland kayaking roll - reverse sweep roll. Body and head should be much closer to front deck on completion of the roll.

We certainly did :-)

This sign, on Storrow Drive, actually started out in life saying "Reverse Curve".

Some stalwart Red Sox fans changed it to this optimistic view. It stayed put for years until the Sox won the World Series in 2004. Now it's been moved to Fenway.

當整件事透過逆向成為了本身

就毋須說明緣由

太扭曲也太曖昧更無頭緒

交錯的黑影重疊附和

也沒什麼好定不定義

定格愈久意味著在記憶裡定居

不斷造訪著自己

也許還能看見不同的風景

認知 時空 及歷史

三年前延續下去的故事情節

也許絢麗 也許安靜

我忘了一段 還是兩段

或者從沒記起

但那些錯過的 巧遇的

我依然心存感激

來了 走了 後悔不如珍惜

逆向 似乎也是某種生存的道理

Had to refit the reversing switch on the top of the gearbox again. This time took detailed photos. I will re-do this using Loctite 243 & crinkle (vibration-proof) washers next weekend (the Loctite didn't arrive in time for today).

My experiment using my 50mm 1.8 as a macro lens, I've reversed mounted it on my camera. Usually this is done using a dedicated reverse ring but cheapskate like me just mount it backwards and hold it using my hand.

I therefore conclude:

- you have to move the camera itself to achive focus

- the longer the focal length the less magnification you would achive

- you could only use upto 24mm as the widest focal length, wider than that the glass of the lens would be touching the subject

- absolutely no control of depth of field. I've only managed to only focus on my name in this picture

The reverse features an eagle grasping thunderbolts, the favored symbol of the Ptolemies which adorned their war banners. Both the eagle and thunderbolts represent the god Zeus. It also features the inscription "ΠΤΟΛΕΜΑΙΟΥ ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ", or King Ptolemy”. Coins with such inscriptions help archaeologists, historian, and numismatists to verify historical accounts.
