I was itching to test my Tamron 90mm macro out today, I suspended a glass necklaces from my microphone boom and lit it with a halogen desk lamp and a led head torch providing the blue background. It wont put me in the photographic halls of fame, but I had fun larking around.

Re the focusing rail, I did notice that Red Snapper are selling one link. After my first poor attempts at hair bell macros I was thinking along the same line.

Great shot and so sharp, I quite often pass seven different Kites as I drive home along the Derwent Valley, although I have never had one gliding low enough to get this close with my 300mm.

Nice one Kris, a very interesting abstract result. Having just purchased my first macro I now appreciate how hard this is.

This was just a last minute suggestion of an event that was happening on my door step, I'm sure that if you suggested something nearer to Darfield you would have some takers, the forum now has quite a reasonable Yorkshire contingent and quite a few of us are not too shy about travelling, including greynolds999 who regularly trails from Edinburgh.

For anyone at a loose end in the North East, it is the Morpeth Gathering, this weekend. Usually a good opportunity for period costume shots, folk musicians in pubs and re-enactment groups. The best day is usually the Saturday. link

I purchased a 16-45 and it has hardly been off my camera since, IMO it is just a great lens.
