Definitely a "Wow!" shot.

I did mean 'wow' as well as 'how', by the way. It kinda went without saying. Well, I did utter a word, but it wasn't 'wow'. I've been in trouble from the mods before, so I won't tell you what it was.

Yeah, it wasn't 'bow' or 'low' either.
That fly looks like it's got a few dud pixels, by the way.

I have been experimenting with some extra close up macro, but haven't been getting any good results.
I have been reversing a 50mm 1.7 on a set of extension tubes. Its a very fiddly process, just getting the image into the view finder is a task unto itself.
This is the best i have got so far.
I would be interested to know what sock is using also.

I quite like that actually Clarky.
Anyway, it was a Tamron 90mm F2/8 Macro lens with 2X Vivitar macro teleconverter attached. Hand held and manual focus.
External flash used.
50% crop, resized and quality lowered to get it under 300k for display here at a decent size.
