Yesterday this tick bit my puppy, mojo, on the front leg-pit(idk if that's what it's called, the dog version of the armpit lol). The skin was loose there and apparently dead, as it just came right off when I removed the tick. Mojo didn't seem to feel it much.
I'm not sure if the indentations on the back are from the tweezers when I plopped him into the lysterine(that's what caused the skin to turn blue, I couldn't find the rubbing alcohol), or if that's just a natural indentation. But yeah, mouth wash killed it in less than a minute.

reversed manual lens(nikon kit lens) on a canon 30d set to f/11, used focus stacking in cs5 as this was three different focal planes. DOF was hair thin even at f/11.
this shot is taken using EF 18-55mm kit lens at 55mm and a reversed EF 50mm F1.8 II which i just bought recently.
my first few reverse macro shot, quite badly done, due to my shakey hands. really fun technique, now i dont need to buy a macro lens ;)
anyway, this picture means quite alot in my opinion, its like we sin like no body's business like we press the sine button on the calculator, and yeah that doesnt make us any better.
This image is taken with an 18-55mm VR lens dismounted and handheld in reverse.
This lens is currently not mounted.
This has potential, I think I will buy some reversing rings to play around with.
Reverse macro of a tiny ground cover flower with my Vivitar 28mm f/2.0 Close Focus (by Komine). Shot handheld, and freelensed! The flower itself is about 1cm across.
My fifty mil. a lens that i completely adore. ignored lately :(
the picture didnt work out to be exactly like i wanted it, this is a 10% crop of the full picture cause i wanted to be in it. but the weird magnified look and the pose didnt work out. anyways. failed home studio project no.5.
strobist: one cheap chinese manufactured studio strobe ( named "Nice" gy 150 ) camera left in line with me and half power through a 50cm x 25cm softbox. in slave mode triggered by an off camera yn 465 at 1/32 set towards me camera left a little behind me
Inspired by Brian aka bojangles_1953. Since I don't have a real macro lens or extension tubes I used my reverse macro filter to mount my 50mm lens on backwards. It gives a macro effect, but with a very narrow depth of field, which is why mine are not as sharp throughout as Brian's are.

Stack of 30 images. Taken with Nikon D800, Edelkrone Action Module (for stepper motor movement), and stacked in Zerene stacking software (pMax).
Testing my new flash for reverse macro photography. yn560II + diffuser + extentionrings x2 + reversed 50mm 1,7. Still need to tweak the diffuser, but seems like a combo that could work :)
So in honour of the iPhone 4 being announced, today's photo is of my ever more obsolete iPhone 3G which is now two generations old. What makes me sad is that when they update the OS to iOS4 I won't be able to use the multitasking feature. I was really looking forward to being able to use multitasking but it looks as though I'll need to wait till I can upgrade to either a 3GS or the 4th generation iPhone. Oh well...
For the record, this was lit so poorly and I'm not at all happy with how it came out. Also, not having a proper macro lens makes this sort of shot quite difficult.
I'm sad to see this lens go. I sold it on eBay and the auction ended last night, so I took a farewell photo before I wrap it up for delivery.
It's Canon's 10-22mm EF-S ultra-wide angle lens, and it's only compatible with crop sensor bodies (consumer and pro-sumer bodies like my 7D, which is being sold soon too). I've moved to full frame with a 5D Mark iii, which means I need to replace it with another lens if I want to take comparable photos.
When I took up photography a few years ago, I never knew it would become such an expensive hobby!

Reverse Macro of the sewing machine needle - Gardengeorgie this is for you!
Don't know if it's too confusing. I had a difficult time getting a good shot.
Steve - I'm looking into that ring for the Nikkon.
These are the legs and shell of a half curled, still living, potato bug. (aka "pill bug" or Armadillidium vulgare)
This is double lens reverse macro shot taken with my Nikon 70-300mm VR mounted on the D80, with a male-to-male 67mm-52mm ring used to reverse mount my Nikon f/1.4 50mm to the front of the 70-300mm. The 70-300mm is set to 270mm, meaning (270mm:50mm) that I'm shooting at 5.4x magnification. That means the image you see here is on a scale 1/5.4th the size of the sensor on the D80.)
In order to have any sort of usable DOF, the 70-300mm was set to f/40 by the D80, while the 50mm is manually set to f/1.4 with the aperture ring. As you can see, most of the bug is still very much out of focus. I use an SB-800 off camera to get enough light. This is the unedited JPEG image, straight out of the camera.
To get a better idea of the scale of the photo, here's the bug half curled on a piece of white paper, with the 50mm lens visible.
I had an idea in mind for this shot but it didn't come out quite how I wanted. I think my challenge for next year will be to work on getting the shots out of my head and into the camera.
I'm still experimenting with the reverse macro techniques. In this case, I reversed a Minolta manual 50mm lens onto my Sony 70-300mm 'G'. The DOF is pretty shallow, and the results became unusable when the lens was zoomed to 300mm, but this shot, SOOC, was taken a little wider, at 70mm, at which focal lengths, the images are much more usable.
