Thanks for the link Clarky. Amazing photos, and I like it that he share his technique with us too. Not that I'm ever likely to set something like that up!

I've got the BPM bellows, but haven't used them that much yet. Tried them with my Sigma and 50mm f/1.7 and got good results from both. Keep meaning to try lenses reversed on them too. Need an aperture ring though, as everything's done stopped down.

So do you get full metering through the bellows :Clarky wrote:

Thinking more like this, but in a more natural environment. It's something I aspire to, but as I say, they've always been too small and too quick for me. You mean like this

I like the first picture of the spider; looks like he's dropped his keys over the edge of the leaf.
Were these taken with your new macro flash?
No i took these last week before i got the flash. I only just unloaded them from my card. I like the first picture of the spider; looks like he's dropped his keys over the edge of the leaf.

Another nice set from you Clarky, would have liked to have seen the jumping spider head-on, to really show those eyes. Not that I've managed that yet, our most common species, the Zebra spider, is tiny and just doesn't stay still. Perhaps this year though...

So when are you getting some bellows? It would have been just 6mm in size

I was only thinking about bellows last week.
I am not even sure what lens would work best on it or what type of bellows i should get.
What do recommend :
