Boss photos you've taken

Nice one. How close were you?

End of lens to the fly, about 4 or 5 inches max.

Look for macro extension tubes for Nikon on amazon mate, Polaroid do some good ones. They're a good way to start practicing macro without splurging four hundred notes on marco lens. Obviously I want the macro lens too but only when I'm good at this macro business.

Nailed on there.

Mine are Jessops' own brand, but there are Kenko too.

Get the ones that have electronic contacts so you can still use autofocus. The ones for about £15 would have none so you would have to manually focus all the time.

That's some patience you got there. The fly would have well done one if I was there.

Desperate for that macro lens but even the used ones hold their value.

haha, thanks. he wasn't moving very quick.

I could only either get his head (is it a head ?) or shell in focus, not both.
