Fantastic, and a little depressing. Everytime I think I'm making progress you post something like this

What a great shot!
I've been considering getting a "100mm Pentax D FA Macro WR lens" for my newly aquired Pentax - K5, and this shot has convinced me that I certainly must do so, asap! However, I need to sell some old equipment first!

If I thought it was just the lens I'd get one tomorrow, but I suspect the lens is just a small part of the equation. I bet mine wouldn't come out like that with the same lens. There is an awful lot of skill here as well.

I bet mine wouldn't either.
If I stuck it down with superglue I'd probably still get a blurred pic.
Well done that man

I have a Pentax 100mm Macro WR, on a K5, I cant get anything like that sort of quality/magnification.
Take my hat off to, Hisham.
Take care.

All I was inferring by my comment was that the lens is capable of great quality images, as shown by Hisham, so, as I thought previously, would be a good choice of Macro lenses for me to get.
Whether or not I could achieve anything as good as Hisham's images is irrelevant. I was only interested in its capability, which is obviously excellent.
