So, these are just a few of the shots I’ve taken of late. All taken with the Petzval 55 f/1.7 MKII.

The eye of our dog, taken with the Petzval 55 and extension tubes. Lots of crisp detail for f/2.

Not much to say in this blog post. I went through a spell of not being in the mood to make pictures, which meant that now I’m photographing again, I had to catch up with my – nearly finished – 365 project. This involved going round the flat, trying to make interesting macro photos with my ring-flash! Here follows a selection of the good ones, along with a couple of others.

So, I’m still playing about with my Raynox 250 on my Tamron 90mm Macro Lense. While I’ve been doing a fair bit of macro work, I’ve also been swapping in the lensbaby as the mood takes me. Still love the edge 35 optic 🙂

A dead fly. This was very small and quite difficult to shoot hand-held.

Some flowers, shot on paper, using the light from a window and tweaked quite a bit in Exposure X4.5

Captures Of The Week (5/6/19)

After a bit of a hiatus from my blog, I’ve decided to upload my favourite photos from the past week. I’ve also been experimenting by using a raynox 250 on my 70-300mm lense, with mixed results. It works well when it wants to!

I realised after posting this that I included photos from my previous captures of the day (doh!). I still think they’re captures of the week too, so they’ll remain.
