Fly on the Wall

Posted by Charles Thomson (Cheltenham, United Kingdom) on 30 May 2009 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.

I've been playing with cheap macro set-ups recently, this was taken holding my 50mm 1.8 backwards over the 18-55mm kit lens. By shooting through both lenses you can focus in pretty close!

I took loads of shots trying to get the eyes in focus without it flying off before I got this one...

Comments (and criticism if I'm in a good mood) are welcome and encouraged
