Hi all

This is my first post on this Forum. I publish my shots on polish Pentax Forum (Pentax.org.pl), and macrophotography forums. I'd like to share my photos with You

All pictures were taken with Pentax K100D with Tamron 90/2.8 and extension tubes.

Wow what a great series. Excellent work.

**eccs19** · 02-19-2009, 12:49 PM

Those are absolutely stunning shots. I wonder if the bugs see things magnified with the water drops on their eyes.

Mark2100 · 02-19-2009, 05:06 PM

Wow! My hat is off!

Good god, Man! Envy doesn't even begin to describe what I'm feeling right now!

How much (if any) post processing do you use? All your shots seem to have a similar, beautiful vibrance, which leads me to believe that you get most of this right out of the camera. In which case, I might as well just give up now

.

Brilliant! Brilliant! Brilliant!

I applaud your work. It's absolutely stunning.

I shoot in RAW, then in Raw Therapee I correct levels, contrast, sharpness, and noise. Then resize, signature and thats all

Today I want to show You picture taken in the beginning of my Pentax era

I used Tamron 75-300 with Raynox DCR-250 and internal flash with homemade diffuser

big size

Below is the link, directly to tubes in this shop

What kind of bug is that? It looks like one straight out of an alien movie.
You do amazing work BTW.

Damn Brit · 02-20-2009, 01:51 AM

I keep looking at this thread and these amazing pictures of yours and I haven't posted because I was speechless.
All I can say is "You are most welcome to the forum, post some more."
