Nice one Clarky! The 77mm is a fantastic piece of kit and I'm sure you'll be very pleased you bought it.

And congratulations on getting a step closer with the Sigma, I hope it proves to be worth the wait!
It certainly is a beautiful looking lens, I always said to myself i wouldn't buy a silver lens but after looking up close and getting a feel of it, it sure adds a touch of class to it.

Sounds good, but don't get tempted to try that Ricoh mount lens unless you are very sure. Probably a good idea to make sure your eBay description is very clear as well to avoid any unhappy buyers...
John: i will definately stress that point when i plan to sell it. I'm not even sure of what its value is to be honest :

I got called up to sunny Queensland for 10 days to assist with the commissioning of a new plant but unfortunately i didn't take the camera with me all work and no play i'm afraid.

I did meet a guy with a love af all that is Pentax though and even better he was selling some of his kit. I picked up an FA 77mm LTD for just AU$500 a very good buy i thought as it goes for around AU$1000 retail He also threw in as a sweetner (if it needed sweetening) a brand new Vivitar 28-105 f3.5-4.5 PK-A/R. This lens is for a Ricoh and it has that little pin on the mount that may foul if i try to mount it on the K20, so i am loathe to try it out until i get some confirmation it will be ok. Or i may just E-bay it

So my trip wasn't a total waste of photography opportunities.

And i got a call that my Sigma 180mm macro is finally in, but i can't pick it up until Tuesday due too the long weekend

Stunning shots, i especially like the first one, you certainly are getting the hang of this macro lark. Well done.

As George says, i would like to know which lens you are using also :

Thats a great shot, it looks like it has been chromed and your right George it does look like it has a plaster on its tail It could be an ID tag like in a hospital for new borns.

Great shots of the little Tadpoles. I like the colours in the second one, but not that he has decided to use the bathroom

How on earth did you come up with that title

Great shots I also like no.4. The patterns on the shells are unusual.
What is that they are crawling around on : looks kinda disgusting

Remind me of fruit flies, but their eyes are usually red (too many late nights ).

Can't say I've looked at too many headless bees here to know if there are any tiny flies on them.

You need too look harder

It was interesting to watch him eating, the way he was holding the bee in his arms, it looked like he was eating a giant souvlaki
