Those are very nice pictures! And a beautiful plant that second one. A fish eye lens you say? Doesn't that distort the picture?

Thats cool Gonz, it certainly catches a lot of the fine details.

Very nice messin', Gonz. I feel like I have the bug's eye view!

Artistic macro images, Gonz - NICE!!!!

I had a semi fish-eye lens I used to play with, and it created warped half-spherical images, similar to looking into a convex mirror - as Japie suggested, quite distorted. Have you cropped those images much?

And is that delightful Till in second photo your variegated ionantha? Love it!

Well, it's "fish-eye" in that the framed area is wider only from about 45mm and below. Above that it's more or less just a magnifyer without loss of clarity.
Kerry, that's my personal fave albo-marginated ionatha, the varigateds don't come close.

Hi Gonz,

Great shots with perfect clarity of minute details, you sure are multi-skilled.

How about some more "eye candy" pic's please?

All the best, Nev.

Only this one today. It looks like the anthers have got little booties on.
