Ever since I picked up a macro reverse ring and a set of extension tubes (this one and these, total cost $15.90), I’ve been wondering about mounting one lens on a second one just to see what would happen. I didn’t see a way to pull it off for quite some time, but then, in …

365.72 …like something from a dream
Day 3 with the new macro rig, and I decided to go big. 8 exposure HDR big. This scene looked so flipping dreamy and impossibly dynamic-rangey that I knew a single exposure would do it no justice. I would really like to see this printed at about four feet wide… (or at least 7.3″ x …
365.71 Nikon Deep Space Telescopy
I shot this indoors, with multiple lights on, at 4:02pm, 8 March 2012, in Dallas TX. It is completely overcast in Dallas today. I do not own a telescope. What I do own is an old, slightly scratched (and rather dusty, apparently) magnifying glass, a Nikon 75-150mm E Series, a Nikon 36-72mm E Series, a …
365.70 Forced Engagement
I had some FUN this afternoon! Whee! I won’t go into it right now, as I’m a bit pressed for time, but I will do a full write up with lots more pictures later soon. If not later tonight, then probably sometime over the weekend. But here’s a hint: D7000, Nikon 75-150mm f/3.5 E Series, …
365.68 Striations
I sorta ran out of time today… Shot a bunch of random stuff, and this (sadly) was the most interesting of the lot. Oh well. D7000, Nikon 75-150mm f/3.5 E Series. ISO100, 3 seconds, f/11, mixture of afternoon light and tungsten, neither particularly close by.
365.67 Rip, Torn
I shot for 5 straight hours today, and didn’t start cursing a single time! Of course, I also didn’t get the shots I was hoping for (for another project), but I did get this. D7000, Nikon 75-150mm f/3.5 E Series, ISO100, 15 seconds, f/16, all natural light.
365.65 1977
1977? Yep. 1977. Of course, I wasn’t alive then* but I have an idea that this shot of the pin screen has some resemblance to a fancy beaded curtain in an upscale club somewhere… Maybe? D7000, Nikon 75-150mm f/3.5 E Series, Reversed, on 48mm of extension tubes. ISO1600, 1/20th, f/3.5. Altered with Topaz Labs’s Adjust …
