anyone can take images like these with a $100 camera..... I did with no special lights, just macro and flash as main light against a dimly lit background. All I did was sharpen slightly.
The second image was blurry, so it's sharpened alot and it was taken under a 100 watt reveal light in my ceiling turned all the way up(8 lights on a dimmer in my reptile room)
2nd is an enigma breeder.
The first is either a eclipse that reverted normal or a het eclipse... I forget I guess I should ask SaSobek because I got him in Daytona.
