A couple of weeks ago I photographed some mini daffodils that we keep in pots outside our house. It had been raining, so there were some nice drops of water on the flowers, giving some extra life to the images.
I tried out a technique that I haven’t tried so much, a sort of «poor man’s macro». The idea is to detach the lens from the camera body and reverse it. There are adapter rings you can buy to mount the lens that way, but I don’t have one. Instead I just held the lens close to the body. Out of several attempts this one was the only one I managed to get sharp without any camera movement. I think it turned out quite nice. (mer…)
