    All very nice but #2 is simply awesome. They look like scale models of special effects monsters in an "alien invasion" movie! :D

    Those are fabulous shots. I have given up with my MPE 65 as nothing seems to turn out anything like one here. Well done.

    Superb!
    great shooting. By chance can anyone tell me if a mpe 65 works with a nikon 300? Or is there a different lens I should be looking at?
