Freaky Macro, Prawns and Pumpkins

Part of the structure of the fish-eye lens functions as a magnifier, and along with this I have picked up some other magnifying lenses.

These are a cheap and ceerful way to get macro photography effects, by acting simply like a magnifying glass in the optical system. The results are not as clean as a complex macro lens, but this can create some interesting images.

I’ve payed about with various subjects over the last few weeks, from the remains of langoustines we had for dinner, dried flowers, pumpkins, ginger and feathers.

These ae some of the results.
