Some Macro Photos
Here are some pictures I took with my Optek 10X Macro Lens (HD2 platinum series). It was advertised for a great price on an online shopping website (it starts with an "A"). I've been wanting a macro lenses for a longtime but I can't afford the prices, so when I stumbled on this lenses attachment - I thought for this price why not. You focus the lense by moving closer or farther away from the object. Since I'm not the steadiest, I needed lots of light to get fast speeds to help with shutter shake.

Nice photos, JS. Figured out what all of them were except for the one with what looked like layers of black plastic. What is it please? Macros are great fun aren't they? Used to have one when I had an SLR.
My latest post made the post of the day list over at authorblog. :)
Peace! Hope! & Joy!
Thanks Lee! Your guess was right on, it is black plastic - a black plastic rain gutter. Macros are fun. I like the change in perspective. I want to experiment some more and see what all I can do with it.
Congrats on post of the day!
Peace back at ya.
jsd: These are really cool images: fun to know (figure out) what they are, and equally fun NOT to know.
thanks murat - i like the knowing/not knowing part of it too.
I love these puzzling views of reality, JS. The mystery, the depth...
san: thank you, it's another aspect of macro photography that I really like - trying to take "the real" and "flip it" to something that twists - if that makes any sense.
neat photos- thanks for the blogstone (and hug?)
i think you've commented once or twice before. i'll be back.
more cows: glad you liked the photos; I was trying to create "ripples" but now I know that parens are hugs :-)
I have commented before, and enjoy your blog, and your perspectives.
