Yesterday I went hiking at Long Shoals Wayside Park in Pickens, SC. I knew I was probably going to get caught in the rain but I made the drive anyways and hoped for the best. There was an intermittent drizzle of rain the whole hike and it made for some really cool lighting situations with clouds constantly passing over the sun.
This image is composed of 31 individual photos that were stacked together in Zerene. I used my Nikkor 50mm f/1.8D reversed on a small extension tube.
This moth, Epimecis hortaria, was very calm and didn't move at all the whole time! I didn't realize until post that there was a fisher spider right in front of him, a pretty cool surprise. I think the spider is a whitebanded fisher spider, Dolomedes albineus.
Thanks for looking :)

This is a frozen twig, its a shame the quality is poor as the subjects were about 3mm though the ice. Used a reverse lens to take
(Unknown species), Family: Psychidae
The Psychidae (bagworm moths, also simply bagworms or bagmoths) are a family of the Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths). The bagworm family is fairly small, with about 1350 species described. Bagworm species are found globally.
The caterpillar larvae of the Psychidae construct cases out of silk and environmental materials such as sand, soil, lichen, or plant materials. These cases are attached to rocks, trees or fences while resting or during their pupa stage, but are otherwise mobile.
A bagworm begins to build its case as soon as it hatches. Once the case is built, only adult males ever leave the case, never to return, when they take flight to find a mate.
In the larval stage, bagworms extend their head and thorax from their mobile case to devour the leaves of host plants.
Bagworm cases range in size from less than 1 cm to 15 cm among some tropical species. Each species makes a case particular to its species, making the case more useful to identify the species than the creature itself.

I thought it was about time to have some Christmas in my stream.
I pulled out the reverse 50mm macro again for this... still, a reallllly thin DoF. Fun though :)
HBW!
Changed color of fabric in Lightroom, from turquoise to purple. HSS!

Going to slide under the wire at the very last minute with an archive shot for Shoot Anything Saturday at 7 Days of Shooting for the Decorative theme of Week #25. it's a photo of embroidery being done on the sewing machine.
Hi all !
As promised here's a high magnification Portrait image of just the head of a well known British Jumping Spider - Species Salticus Scenicus... ( Size of subject approx. 5mm )
This is most probably the best Macro work i've done so far in my history of Macro stuff but it was extremely frustrating to get... It took hours to get the sppider to sit still and hours to get photos worth stacking. In the end i got my photos and gave him some peace while i processed them. Again i used the Blue tac packet as a background colour, this time it was a bright orange colour which i thought worked well with the composition as a whole.
This was taken with my 28mm f2.8 prime FD lens reversed on extension tubes also mounted onto the bellows at full length. Stacked from around 10 or so images maybe more.
Now a lot of you have been asking 'why is my macro not clear etc'
Well for those people who do not understand Stacking, here's a brief tutorial on how it is done and a program you can use to stack your photos for the best quality outcome ;

trying out my old/new reverse Macro.
so nice to finally have a use for that unused Kit-lens, which was basically just lying around envying my beloved Sigma 33mm for it's daily use.
by the way those Marbles are about 5-7mm in diameter AT MOST!
that reversed Macro is pretty amazing and a very very cheap option ;)
I've been wanting to try this since a while but I was a little scared to actually do it. Reverse lens macro.
Last week the dudes were pretty sick and the little dude passed out on the couch. I figured, hey, I'm gonna try something new today. This whole being stuck in the house for too long doesn't do any good for my brain...so I took off my lens, flipped it around and started shooting. It's a challenge for sure, but I think it's worth it :)
Testing a home made macro kit on a one dollar bill.
I put together a reverse lens macro kit which consisted of:
Canon 28-90 Zoom Lens (From a film Rebel G EOS)
Canon Body Cap
55mm UV Filter
I cut out the center of the body cap, glued the 55mm Filter onto it, then screwed on the lens.
I'd actually just finished gluing the filter to the bodycap. As soon as it was dry, I looked for the first thing at hand to test it out and pulled a dollar bill out of my pocket.
The bill was not flat it was kinda wavy which is why the eye is in focus but the nose is blurred. At full size, you can see the fibers in the bill.
There is no aperture control, only shutter spped and the DOF is minuscule but the macros are extreme!! More pics to follow.
Thanks to my friend Matt for all the help.
Here's another fly stack, something about flies just really interests me, the amount of detail on their bodies is seriously amazing.
This was really just testing the light in this image, i may need a second flash for the under part of the insects to lighten the bottom half of their bodies up a bit.
Stacked from 70 images Pmax Zerene stacker, i used for this 28mm Prime lens reversed onto Bellows.
Any comments are appreciated !
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.
Not sure what type of flower this is, but it grows in my landscaping. Someone once told me it was a type of rhododendron.

I've been wanting to try a water drop picture for a while, so, since it's raining today, I thought it'd be a good day for an attempt! This was done with a reverse 50mm, which I don't play with nearly enough!
HBW!

A new macro of my eye i think it´s better than the other i posted here before. i would like to make a set only with macro eyes like this here on flickr , let´s see if i can persuade some one else to model for this!
Hi all, Here's a very close up of a 5mm Fruit fly that was flying around on my window sill. He proved to be an easy subject to photograph unlike a lot of other insects... this was only a stack of 13 images with some manual stacking also because Photoshop is awful and my free Zerene stacker trail expired and i haven't got money to be spending on the full version at the moment...
On the bright side Flickr user Geetee50 has acquired some stacking material and an objective which i recently bought from him so should be here within a week and then i can get down to some better quality images when i choose to photograph subjects like this, without losing all the quality due to the bellows.
Even more good news is that i managed to build a DIY ball head mount for my flash saving myself 40 pounds which is so very useful when using the bellows as i don't have to hand hold the flash when i want more light over the subject, 'tis great !!
