These days, it is easy to make macro movie clips with a latest DSLR or a digital HD camcoder. However I have neither latest DSLR nor digital HD camcoder. So I attach a reversed single lens to an old camcoder . This is really a simple way to make an old movie camcoder which has no macro fucntion to a macro capture available one.
Some vignetting are caused from the reversed lens aperture. I could get rid of it by zooming camcoder's lens, but it makes too shallow of focus range to make a difficulty to control.
Grasshopper on my hand, which was upstairs in my eldest boys room, found him after it with a light sabre
I've had this little spiral for about 10 years. It came with a plastic drink bottle that was a promotional gift with some protein powder I ordered.
I have never known how to use it, so today it had its first outing............ as a photography prop.
A series of my macro captures today. All shot taken with Nikkor 35mm 1.8G DX and Raynox DCR250 macro adapter lens.
Ok...have cropped one of the two Flies pics. A more scientific macro capture perhaps but I think I prefer the original where can see a bit more of the foreground and background :)
Body and elytra are black, like most of the other members of this genus, the legs are black, differentiating it from P. madidas which has brown legs.
The sides of the pronotum are strongly rounded with the hind angles being sharp.
Antenna cleaning notch is present and it is fully winged and capable of flight.
Found all year round in damp habitats almost everywhere in the UK.
Predator of other invertabrates but will also eat fruit.

A macro capture of the top of my straw fedora that I typically only wear on trips to Caribbean or during the summertime.

This one was more of a challenge than the others. It is an HDR, tone-mapped from 7 flatbed scanner exposures. The scanner was set to Transparency mode and the black / white points and mid range exposure was adjusted for each scan to get good exposures from all of the varying densities of the translucent minerals.
I also took a single scan in Reflected mode to get detail in the outermost rings of the pattern. This was blended with the HDR in Photoshop. Because the HDR had some flaring effects around the edge of the stone, I created a mask to clamp the tones and give a sharper edge. I placed the result on a black background to accentuate the stained glass glow of this agate.
This is another in a series of experiments on using a flatbed scanner as a macro capture device
