Still learning how to use this setup...

#1 This one has been sharpened and levels adjusted in gimp

Nice images. I always like to see the "face" of the bug so I like #2 the best. I use the same setup; a 50mm lens mounted in reverse. Lots of fun and it works quite well. Post 'em when ya take 'em.

Nice captures. Is the ladybug in #2 the same one as the emerging one in #1?

No, it was a different one. I was actually able to go get a tripod and keep on taking pictures of #1 ! That was kinda interesting
