Snapped a quick shot while we were getting ready to go out to dinner. She is so gorgeous.

This is an experiment with extreme macro.

A 300mm zoom lens with an inverted 28mm prime mounted in front gives a field of view around 2 mm wide on the APS-C sized sensor (300/28 =10.7:1 magnification, or over 10 times closer than a normal macro lens).

The setup is slightly disappointing because the depth of field is extremely narrow, making focusing very hard, even at small apertures. This is f13.

Rough focus manually on the zoom, tuned with a focusing rail on the tripod.

Oh, and the subject is connectors on a computer chip. They look like silver strands of hair to the naked eye.

This part of the trip is over. Other important steps are: getting the door open, see if the heater works, sweep up mouse poop and then find a place to sleep.

This was once someones pride and joy but it's now being knocked down for the land value and probably a monstrosity will rise in its place.

The rusty old letterbox is still full of letters. Not much recycling going on here :-(

My LCA is off to a nice guy called Roger to be fixed and serviced. Can't wait to get it back.

I know I have photographed this many time over the years, but I look forward to bringing these out into the home and taking more pictures! Happy and safe holidays to all.
