Well done macros and B&W. Simultanouesly displays the quality of the 55-300mm and the Raynox lenses as a simple, inexpensive route to macro.

Thanks. Totally agree. works pretty well with the 55-300. havent found the need for a macro lens yet! Only downside is that you need to use MF most of the time and at 200mm + the dof is so narrow that handheld shots arent that easy to nail focus where u want it. still probably the best 40 bucks i spent on camera gear (for the raynox)

I found this little flower when out feeding the birds/squirrels. It was small and looks like some kind of succulent, or the leaves do anyway.

Without flash, just natural light.

Here are two flowers about as macro as you can get with the non-macro Pentax-A 135mm f 2.8.
