These pictures were discussed on Steves Forum



Macro in natural light - first three pictures
A Bug with bounced and diffused onboard flash

...and

Ants with diffused and bounced onboard flash, 50mm reversed lens = +20 diopter
...extremely small depth of field (DOF)

The second picture is a combination of three handheld shots, combined by helicon focus.
The shots covered consecutive layers of appr. 0,2mm depth.

Getting closer: The eye of an aphid:


After seeing these pictures a friend gave me a macrorail!
My new equipment is much better now:
(the small part in the middle is the camera!)

- cheap tripod (weight)

- pneumatic release as a compensation

- I can use my lcd again !!!!!!

- macrorail (old east german production)

- flash diffusor (if needed)

               
               
               


       









All these pictures were "taken" -somebody said borrowed - in my garden
