moth macro

Over the Summer, i fell back in love with photography as more than merely a means of recording personal landmarks (such as building the greenhouse) or 'it shouldn't happen to a dog/cat/John' type of event. I am particularly enamoured of the close-up at the moment with true Macro being the ultimate, glittering prize.
Luckily i had a good compact and managed some nice close-ups of flowers and garden spiders. Then i used the catalogue to buy my first digital SLR. I found a lovely Russian 50mm lens on Ebay and today i made a huge leap closer to the goal by using some cheap tubes. I'm really pleased with these photographs of a dead moth which i've kept in my subjects-for-the-microscope jar for years.
