My journey into Macro Photography.

Hi Senior of Macro Photography,

I just step in this close up world. Hope can get guidance from seniors here to improve my work on Macro photography. My current set up are set of extension tube + reversed 50mm f/1.8 lens.

Here I share some of my humble works. Comments and Critiques are welcome:

Great discovery..Btw, I feel that the flash is harsh and the shadow is a little distracting..a diffuser will improve the image.
I am sure the other more experienced photographers would be able to offer you more constructive comments...keep-it up!

Nice try, seldom people use revise lens nowadays. Also can get close-up filter +3 or +4.

Thanks for the advise. Using reversed lens are really hard too see, because is really dark at the view finder, But still can use live view to capture.

The diffuser cap is not gonna do the trick, try DIY Victor' s diffuser and u should be able to eliminate the hash shodow issue.

Generally, your shots are sharp and well expose. Just need a little work to diffuse the flash. Nice series!

Hi Vick, your shots are sharp and lightings are good too. Like the rest said, a diy diffuser is useful. Happy macroing!
