I completed wonderful reverse macro shots of The E Ring on Sunday - sunlight works best.
It has all my hopes and loves in one simple shape!

I've had a rough few days, so my wonderful husband made me Funfetti cupcakes to make life a bit more bearable... since, you know, the sprinkles are made out of happiness.

More adventures with Reverse Lens Macro.
This is a series illustrating what happens when a Scarlet Bee Balm blossom decides to open.
First (seen in comments) there is a little bud with alien spiky things coming out.
Then (seen as the main photo) the spiky things come thrusting out and begin to look positively reptilian. Or maybe something from the octopus family?
Then each spiky thing puts forth a single blossom (seen as the second photo in comments).
The entire flower (seen as the last photo in comments) is about 2.5 inches across (that's 6.35 cm).
You may have heard of "Blue Blood", I guess many of us never heard of "Green Blood". Yes, it is good to know that GrassHoppers blood is green.
This is how I took it...
After looking through my past photos i came upon a very good infocus Jumping spider image, well here it is hope you all like it.
Be sure to add me as a friend here on Flickr and check out my other photos on my Photostream, thanks !

7 Days of Shooting, Week #25: Decorative -- Focus Friday
Another Moth was in our flat last night, hanging on to my room mates door. Managed to catch it and then let it settle on my desk again before it crawled up onto a container.
This is an Angle Shades Moth. Not much different than the last, to the same family if I remember correctly, though this ones tongue is retracted and not hanging about all over the place.
I managed to get some coloured card underneath to make it more colourful and then did a quick 14 images stack of it while it slept using my tripod as a stacking system, working pretty well.
For this image I used
50mm Prime FD Film lens ( 10 pounds )
Extension tubes 49mm
Canon 550D
2x Led lamps, with diffusing paper.

Since there is still freezing rain falling outside, I took out my marbles and took some reverse macro images of them. I think they turned out pretty neat, the colors remind me of a water color painting in a way.

Found this little bugger on the back patio and he decided to pose for a photo shoot. Check out those fangs! Didn't even notice them while shooting, until I download the photos onto the computer. Yikes! Glad I didn't notice them when the spider was about 12 inches from my face.
I have had another chance to take another macro shot, this time of a bumble bee.
The image is stacked from 20 source images. It's a long way off perfect, with many artefacts present in the image, but the experience is always valuable.
The setup included a manual 50mm Minolta lens mounted in reverse on the end of some bellows, attached to my A55 camera. Only a single flash was used, with a couple of reflectors (one below, one to the side), with natural light coming from a nearby window.
In this particular image, the lens was on f/8, focussed at infinity. I have found when wider open, there is a significant rise in the degree of CA present in the image. The image of the eye was taken at f/4.5, and had a much more obvious degree of CA present.
trying to get a closeup makeup shot and i hit the trigger too soon! so now the dust is in focus and the model is just a background. the colors i thought looked neat, although a complete and utter failure of a pic
Proverbs 3:13-18
"Blessed is the one who finds wisdom, and the one who gets understanding, for the gain from her is better than gain from silver and her profit better than gold. She is more precious than jewels, and nothing you desire can compare with her. Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. She is a tree of life to those who lay hold of her; those who hold her fast are called blessed."
i uploaded this image a few days ago but wasnt happy with the overall image (mainly the eyes)
Everytime i take shoot bugs i always shoot more than 1 frame of the creature so i know i get one in focus, so using another image of the same bug in relatively the same position i cloned the eye from one onto the other and i am now much happier with this image.
original shot was taken with 70-200 F4L reversed lense
yes, I am not kidding. This is a shot from my LCD pixels. After reading about Macro and macro photography I decided to give it a shot.
In case you are wondering, this is a close shot of a bright white LCD screen and a part of a the word "corporations"
Oh, I had grand plans for this week's shot for the 52 Weeks for Dogs group. Grand, I tell you. After experiencing sad, sorry failure with my 90mm macro lens, I bought a reverse-mount ring and gave that a go. The results were much better, but still, as you can see, a far cry from what I was going for. My kids were born in the '90s, so I'm used to making sense out of really bad ultrasound images -- maybe that's why I can identify Fergus (and myself) reasonably well in this shot, horrible, blurry, and grainy though it is. I was going to just give up and post something different for this week, but I figured WTF, might as well see this pathetic thing through to the end!

Shot this hairy fellow yesterday while on a macro mission in my garden. Shot with a reversed 28mm on tubes plus external flash on a simple bracket.
I believe it's a Helpis minitabunda, common name: Bronze Aussie Jumper.
At over 8x magnification, the watch mechanism takes on an abstract, monumental quality. Fine scratches, nicks, and specks of dirt cover all the surfaces. For scale, I estimate the cog's teeth are around half a millimetre long. See the previous photo for a wider view of this area.
Canon EOS 5D mark III, Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM, Kenko MC-7 2x teleconverter, Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM reversed (tripod, Live View manual focus, timer release).
200mm/24mm, f/5.6-f/4, 1/4 sec, ISO 400 (exif incorrect).
