Extreme Eye Shots

[Wariactive]

Hi guys! I just want to share a few images taken this afternoon. I know I had given my geckos a bit of a stress because of the flash I used but rest assured, they are all relaxing now, and given proper and outmost love and care.

Here are extreme close up images of my gecko collection. I used a Nikon D7000, Nikkor 28-70 3.5-4.5 AF (Reverse lens method) using a reverse adapter ring. Magnification should be about 5:1 depending on the zoom range. On board flash and a DIY diffuser.

Anyways, i'll stop the chitchat for now. Here they are... Please do click on the "Venti" mode for a 1024 visual treat.

Now this shot made my day. All the perspiration and a little stress I gave to the animals were rewarded.

I have some more to share so please feel free to comeback in a day or two. I still got some Snows images still in RAW format.

Hope you enjoyed as much as I did.

Guys, thank you so much for the kind words. Just have enough patience and we will be rewarded. They are squirmy animals and require delicate handling when shooting their sensitive eyes.

Oh by the way. Should I post the rest of the photos here or make a new thread? Thanks!
