This little fella was kind enough to let me take his pic. Most vanish on me as soon as I go to Click.

    Lovely and clear. Very nicely done.

    You add any light to that, or just natural? I struggle with light when reversing lenses.

    This is natural light, just levels in PSE, I too struggle with light, My little pop up flash just blows everythins out, I think I will buy some gear this year. The day was overcast but my biggest trouble with using natural light is blur. Out of 15 shots this is as sharp as I could get.

    Thanks for the question.

    I actually made a bizarre contraption which directed the on-board flash down to the front of the lens - I then had a toilet tissue diffuser on the end...it did help a lot, but looked a bit strange.

    I then took to using an off-camera flash on a bracket, diffused with a piece from a plastic milk bottle. That was quite good. One day I'll have the proper kit, but for now, that's it. :)

    Cheers
