Hello
- All BF with Nikon 5T+6T on FZ20.
- Asilidae (robberfly) macro, with reversed 55mm @ 12x and 9,5x zoom respectively and ext. flash. (each eye is about 1,3mm in diameter, so check the DOF in # 1!).
- Snake (Natrix natrix) with FZ20 only.

NOTE: I ll be out of home for the next 5-6 days

Narmer, you never seize to amaze me with your photography. Every time I say "these are Narmer's best", you came-up with another serieswith more beautiful shots. The "eyes" are by far the best!

Bypoint it out thethe size of the eyes and shalow DOF, one shouldappreciate the difficulty and quality of the image.

Thanks for sharing,, and keep them coming!

Thank you Sven, Macnite and Callmebali.

Callmebali , my55mm wide angle lense I use reversed has a 52mm thread size.
On it I have a 52>55 step up ring, then a "male to male" ring which is 55mm on one side and 62 on the other one, and finally a 62>72mm step ring which is threaded on the FZ plastic stock fantastic (!) adapter/hood. Quite heavy (the 55mm is A Ricoh Rikenon F/1,4 which vignettes from 7-8x zoom downwards.

The hardest thing to find are these male-to-male rings (different thing from the dSLR reverse lense conversion rings) but some photo shops maighr still have them.
