No setup was done for this, the lighting is terrable, I used AF which you never do for macro, hence having some problems focusing thru the glass, also this was with just hte 55mm lens, no extention tube or reverse ring...still, not a bad pic, the detail is ok, once I get a light ring and the other bits, these pictures should come out beautiful

Got the lighting sorted a bit for this shot, and made a temp arpeture stopper, so got a bit more control over the lighting/focus/etc


This photo is taken just with a Reverse Ring and the kit lens 18-55mm cant wait to take photos with the extention tube and light ring! its gona be soooo close in!!!


Highly recomend this camera to anyone looking for an upgrade just £215 off ebay (theres a couple left i think) and £6 for the 52mm pentax reverse ring!

however, i am amazed to see so many eggs still, they went into hibernation with them, could it be they have just been using them as food?

Nice pictures man.

In deed, strange to see so many eggs, how long are they in hibernation, most of the eggs don't survive the hibernation. It could be that they use them as food but i doubt it.
