Default New guy... Reverse lens Macro

Hey guys, I'm now getting started in photography.. here are my shots using a reverse mounted 18-55 kit lens... All shots are hand held with aperture value @f11 and ISO @100

First shot was cropped... If you look closely at the 2nd pic, you will notice alot of lens dust

I plan to upgrade to a 2.8 100mm Macro in a few months...... working distance with reverse lens at 55mm is only 4-5"

Excellent series with a reversed kit lens. Always think it's a pity canon don't make a cheapo reversed kit lens for macro (ie with full aperture control etc).
As MJ says try to keep the pics to 1024 px longest side.

nice shots indeed. your working distance is similar with mine at 4" or so. it helps to not have to get any closer.
