Just messing around again with the flash. I've got some great ideas, I think, for some shots. Hopefully I can get them this weekend.
I realize this may look a bit off kilter. I wasn't parallel with the desk so that line at the bottom is angled. Best outcome for my poor framing I think.

LMT... those shots are OUTSTANDING. I love them. How close did you have to get with 60mm and tubes? Also, what kind of lighting did you use?
Thanks MJ. At maximum magnification (2.36x) the working distance from the front element is 75mm and actually reduces as you zoom back to lower mags.
For lighting I used an SB800 and homemade ring flash adapter on the first 3 and just a stofen diffuser with the SB800 on a bracket for the last 3. Here's a few more with the ring flash adapter.
Apparently, if your accidentally locked in a freezer on a WWII Battleship, you're only hope is if someone hears this bell across the way....I wouldn't wanna test it...
