THERE BE SNAPDRAGONS

[FUJI]

I got down to a very small world yesterday by exploring the skull-like seed pods of Snapdragon flowers.

 

Then I had a great surprise...there was Life in miniature that could hardly be seen by the naked eye.     A baby Woodlouse not more than 4 mm long  and the tiniest snail I've ever seen.

Seeing these, it makes me wonder why I spent well over £300 on a dedicated macro lens for my long-gone SONY ALPHA 77.

These were taken through that tiny DIY rig costing circa £35.

Those seed heads remind me of pigs too.

Those are amazing.

You certainly seem to be getting even better control of the set up now.

Brilliant shots!  Your macro work with that DIY kit is really coming on now.

Another great set FUJI and completely different from your earlier more creative shots you posted.
