Very nice macro. Thinking about experimenting with a reverse ring and some extensions but for now, here is one with the 15mm.

Nice, but you have a little chromatic aberration. You can simply remove it for example by ACR

Thanks. You have some terrific images from your 15Ltd. Do try your hand at macro too, it is quite addictive.

Thanks. I usually use a dedicated macro but results from this inexpensive 200mm with Raynox turned out to be unexpectedly good !
Here is another one with the same gear. Patterns on the abdomen of a signature spider.

Thanks ! Appreciate your feedback

A regular Friday afternoon ride with the bike. Had the K5 and 15mm in my bag and stopped by this small canal. The image the DA15mm delivers is somewhat special - corners are weak, but colors are just great. And I forgot how good the dynamic range of the K5 was....

Thank you. Your wide angle wave shot is certainly a keeper.

I know I have a long way to go but here are a couple of street style portrait attempts.

How far exactly do you think you have to go? Those are excellent!
