A post by moedank in the Arc forum of a macro shot of 2 LSH-P's reminded me that I wanted to start a Macro thread here.
Everyone post some of your best Marco (closeup) Photos here.
They can be of anything, doesnt have to be lights.

Note: Please do not post the pics directly in the thread, link or thumbnail them. Thanks.

I will get us started with a few I took.












I'll try to take some others later.
Any request? I like a challenge. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Look at this and let me know if you see what I think I see in it-

hey...Wingerr,

At first i saw Abe Lincoln. I showed the picture and a real penny to my brother and asked him,

"Hey! Did you know that the penny has a miniature Abe Lincoln in the back?"

Brother: "YEA! You didn't know? But doesn' that look like Abe turned around with his *** pointed at you?"

Me: "Oh...What the....this must be what Wingerr is talkin' about."

Wingerr, is that what you see? Abe Lincoln's butt?
 
Re: _^..^_ The Macro (closeup) Photo Thread !!!

OK, here's one that's not too good, but was at least
technically difficult.

This is a shot of a lit filimant in a flashlight bulb. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Here's another. This is a shot of a rare LL123
(forerunner of the FireFly by Doug Speck) by Larry
(tvodrd). This light is the same diameter as a CMG
Infinity, but considerably shorter. It has a Luxeon
run at 350MA from a single CR123 and modified NX05
optics.

Re: _^..^_ The Macro (closeup) Photo Thread !!!

that is one extremely sweet light! here's my contribution to the macro thread:

http://users2.ev1.net/~wesiddiquis/cpfmacro/

none of them are newer than about a year i should add, some a few years old. named images were scanned from print on flatbed (Boohooo), IMG* are digicam. etc etc. hope you like them, maybe this will push me to do more macro /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
Re: _^..^_ The Macro (closeup) Photo Thread !!!

Heheheh ... I have a pair of those on the left, Geoff. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
 
 
Some nice photos above guys!

For some reason (no doubt talent and skill related) NONE of the flashlight photos I have tried even come up to the level of mediocre. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

This photo of an ancient Roman coin: Roman Imperial bronze "AE Folis" coin of the Emperor Maximianus (286-305 A.D.). The coin is about 30mm in its widest dimension.
is probably my best digital macro.

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif Yup! I was wondering if I was the only one that saw that in there- looks like a butt nekkid guy standing at a urinal doing his business-
I know, it's supposed to be Honest Abe seated, but them's knobby knees, thar! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Good Rorschach test, maybe?? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
 
i dunno how them knees could be viewed as anything else *IF* one knew the landmark was /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif i mean, come on, old abe taking a **** on his own monument! hah!
