\n140mm film equivalent focal length. In other words, zoomed all the way in on my camera, but using the reverse macro trick<\/a> I can focus that near.<\/p>\n


\nThe wheels stopped turning and the spark is gone. To get this lighting, I had to use flash, and bounce it towards the subject by putting my left hand over it like an umbrella. It gives it a nice warm tone anyway. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n


\nGross.<\/p>\n


\nPointing a supermacro setup at spotlights make for interesting bokeh.<\/p>\n


\nTransformers Cybertron Downshift<\/a>, also using hand as a flash reflector.<\/p>\n


\nThree lost screws from the Nikon Coolpix 2200 I disassembled<\/a>.<\/p>\n


\nThis eye has probably seen more trashcans than I have. (I’ve tried with a tripod but focusing it is very hard. So hard, I have not succeeded.)<\/p>\n


\nHair looms. (This was the only picture that was cropped; the rest were really shot at that magnification.)<\/p>\n


\nGuess what this is.<\/p>\n


\n…and you might<\/i> get this.<\/p>\n

Also, check out Paul’s macro shots<\/a> which he took using my Fujinon 50mm F1.4 lens<\/a>, attached to his Nikkor 50mm F1.8D on his Nikon D80. I’m pretty sure I took that picture of the fly as he had trouble focusing on it. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n

While at it, check out Paul’s Railwayday shots<\/a> for some excellent moods<\/i> in photos. And there he was, looking as uninspired as I was when I said I didn’t feel inspired to shoot anything at the KL Sentral KTM station.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
