Ok, all you rust junkies, please be kind. I picked up a used 55mm/2.8 AF micro last weekend and have been playing around with it. This was taken at about 2" without a tripod, as can be evidenced by the oversharpening to try and compensate for my weak eyesight and shaky hands :rolleyes Time to get that new tripod.

Edit: not a good start. Let's see if this works now :)

    Well, that's definitely a step in the right direction. It shows a lot of promise. We always have room to accept a new JUNKIE to the crowd.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Well, here's another that I attempted. This is the hook on the lid of an old steel milk container.

    Thanks everyone! I have a feeling I'm going to need a 12 step program for this.
