Really enjoying this thread and pictures. I'm too new to dslr (k100d with kit lens) to know my answer. My main interest is plant / flower photography. Up close. I love bokeh too, so my new 50mm da is working out nicely normally And reversed.
However I do take the odd landscape and we wanted to ID birds etc. And general pics. So my partner having a point and shoot with zoom is Going to bail me out. Lol

Thank you! :) I do too. It worked well with a reversed 50mm lens on my K100D. I'm getting the hang of still as my first DSLR.

Thanks, I was pleased with them. it's a begonia leaf that is dying off now, but the frost really set it off nicely. ---------- Post added 12-08-20 at 06:59 AM ----------
Thanks, I'll have to give it a try with the kit lens reversed. I would still like a 'proper' macro lens, but really need to make sure it's the right one. there is a Pentax 100mm SMC D FA F2.8 or if money wasn't an issue then the Laowa 60mm or 100mm but to be honest they're not in my price range.
I did buy some correctly sized macro tubes, but sadly one locked in place and I had to dismantle the inner section to free it off my lens. Not happy, but relieved it came off.

I know. I was tempted to try to help but figured it might be a shock. It's a shady back garden so still no sun on him yet.

Start around burry port, Pembrey, Kidwelly and Ferryside... Then beyond. I ride a motorbike so stop all different places. I've been right round the west coast. Lots of history llansteffan Castle /beach is a favourite. Also if you haven't seen Pentre Ifan it's worth adding. Gower etc is beautiful too. Can you tell I'm in love with Wales. Been here 13 years now. Lol

Loving all the pictures - definitely keeping the theme.
This is from my house and village toward the earth sculpture I photographed from before.
I did hear a you tuber saying proper photographers don't shoot sunsets...nice to see they are wrong.
No filters or post editing.

Thanks. Considering I messed up and left it at 3200 iso. Oops.
This was today in the garden. Am enjoying the lens.
