The sculpture in question is a life-size bronze resin by Carol Peace (a long-time favourite of mine) entitled 'In My Hands' which was exhibited at the Fresh Air Sculpture Festival, Quenington, Glos., earlier this month. Rather than just taking a photograph, beautiful though the sculpture is, I chose to add my own imprint on the work by placing the open catalogue depicting Carol Peace's exhibits in its hands. The resulting image I have titled 'In My Hands - What I'm Reading Now' and is reproduced here in two forms (original and colour pop). So my questions are does my 'addition' add or detract from my representation of the work and, if so, which of the two versions most effectively illustrate my intent?

Renowned, Raynox high-quality multi-element close-focus supplementary lenses complete with snap-on adapters, original packaging and paperwork. I would describe their condition (cosmetically and optically) as being ‘very good to excellent’. I made great use of these with both fixed focal length and zoom lenses before purchasing my first ‘true macro’ lens, of which I know have three in different focal lengths. In consequence, the Raynox have seen very little use in recent years and the time has come to offer them for sale.

Further details and user reviews here: link

These lenses currently retail for in excess of £70.00 in the U.K. I am asking £35.00 for the DCR-150, 45.00 for the DCR-250 or £70.00 for the pair, all prices excluding carriage (buyer selects service and pays for shipping). My preferred method of payment is PayPal.

The following jpegs images (only levels or curves and cropping post-capture) were taken using a 50mm SMC Pentax-A (minimum focus set) mounted on a Pentax K-3. Both images with the supplementary lenses attached were taken ‘hand-held’.

I have used one of these Ex-Pro Dual Digital Chargers for several years without issue:

The one shown comes with plates for Canon, so you would also have to purchase these:

There are used versions of the charger on ebay currently for less, but you would still have to buy the plates and forgo the two-year Ex-Pro warranty.
