When Ezhil Sir told me that "Jumping Spiders" are cute subjects, I had my own doubts. How could a Spider be "cute"?
Not until I saw it for myself from the other side of the Viewfinder, I realised how cute, curious and gregarious these creatures are. All the eight legs and six eyes (out of eight) are visible in this photograph.
Shot with a reverse mounted Nikkor 35mm f1.8G Lens.
Sometimes you have little enthusiasm. In which case Macro really helps. This is a small rock with holes in and plenty of processing.
Using reverse mounted adapter with my 50mm lens on my d80 i made an advertisement for Snowpeak. Shame its tiny but i couldn't find a Snowpeak logo large enough.
This is a 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. I use the SB-800 off camera to get enough light. This is the unedited JPEG image, straight out of the camera. If you think this is an extreme close up, try viewing the detail in the 10M original image.
The banana I used for this shot is here.
(This photo is definitely best viewed large.)
Yesterday I was reading the flickr blog entry about Reverse Lens Photography (http://blog.flickr.net/en/2010/05/07/turn-your-lenses-upside-down/) and got inspired to put together my Canon 70-200mm L 4f with my Tamron 28-200mm 3.8-5.6 and this is one of the results.
More on my blog:
Reverse mounted Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II, 1:1 magnification, handheld, lit with with shoe mounted Canon Speedlite 430EX II. Diffused with sto-fen omni-bounce and bounced off printer paper.
Another one from the archives... this was taken the same time as the pic below this past summer, and I just never got around to uploading it.
Photo 9/52 - Week 9, 2011.
Finally getting around to posting this week's photo. I have been flat out at work having troubles with HP.
Last weekend my wife had an invitation to High Tea for charity, Liam was with her which left me free for almost two hours to location scout for a photo for the Epson Panoramic competition. Last year I got a bronze award for my photo of the ferris wheel in Birrarung Marr so I am keen to give the competition another go this year.
So there I was, playing around with compositions and views when I notice this rather colourful moth on a cross beam. A quick swap to the 50mm and reverse lens macro scored me this shot.
This is the second of two photos I have attempted of this subject, this time at a slightly different angle.
I like the fact that there is more of the subject that can be seen. This, as with the other example, also suffers from the images not being taken close enough together, resulting in the obvious presence of focus bands.
This is the first time that I have attempted a slightly different lighting setup - using two flashes instead of just one. One of the flashes was located above the insect, with the second underneath. I am generally happy with the lighting in this image.
This image has been taken at about 3.5:1, and is made up of 14 individual images.
Another reverse macro shot. This time, I have manual aperture. These flower buds are about 4mm in diameter.
Used a yashica 50mm reverse mounted to a Canon EOS.
reverse macro shot :
1/200 , f16 , iso320 , slave flash 1/10 (manual)

Reverse mounted Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II, 1:1 magnification, harsh natural light on a very sunny day.
Here's another shot from this past fall. This guy was pretty sluggish, maybe near death, so he didn't put up too much of a fight.
Below is a head on view... looks like an alien...
Photo 159/365 - 8 June 2010.
Ok I have broken my own rule in this project for the first time. I thought to myself at the start that I do not want to post the same subject matter two days in a row, that I will try to find something different each day to push myself. Well today I broke that rule.
My day was really all out of whack. So by the time I was heading to the office it was after 1pm. To make it worse demolition derby was active at sparrow's this morning - they started demolishing a house down the road at some ungodly hour. I thought of taking a shot of that but by the time I could get out to take shot, it was just a pile of rubble without much real subject matter to work with.
As I walked past my neighbour's daisies again, I thought it still have so much potential as a subject matter. I wanted to capture in the same frame all the different stages the flowers are at on the bush right now. Birth, blossom, aging and faded. Whilst yesterday was life and birth, today is about passing it's prime and into twilight.
I had plans to shoot a different photo, but I have had an awesome time at whisky tasting going through the Glenmorangie then the Ardbeg range. I'll settle for this photo. :)
Imperial / Metric tape captured using reverse macro. Very narrow DOF. The tape measure was approx 10mm wide.
Taken with a reversed Nikkor 18-55mm DX VR lens. I used a Fotodiox 55mm macro reversing ring and aperture enabler
All the pictures are totally raw . Hand made pop up flash difusser helped a lott :)) Snapped it with 18-55 kit lens holding it reversely... The actuall size of the insect : 2mm .
