Those are very good, excellent detail on all three. Where'd you get the adapter?

Hey Tom, thought just yesterday that we hadn't heard from you in a while! Excellent shots again - that diffuser seems to do the trick.

Well done for getting the drinking ant.

Keep them coming!

Tremendous!

Can only think of one word Tom, Superb!!!

Excellent, but I'm not sure whether they inspire me to try to take better shots or retire from the field!

just a quick question about the macro images the second lens you mount on backwards does it have to have an aperture ring or can you use a pentax 1stds kit lens

If you use the kit lens then you will only be able to use it wide open, however I don't find this to be a problem, because if you use a manual lens and stop down the second lens you can get severe vignetting and it doesn't seem to affect d.o.f very much.
