New Zoa Macro's

[rhagemann]

Took these last night. I especially like the level of detail on the skirts. The texture really comes out.

that 1st pic has a lot of detail. impressive. what type of camera/ lens?

 

[rhagemann]

Thanks. I've been shooting that particular polyp for the better part of a week and this is by far, the best shot.
Using a Rebel XT, Canon EF 100mm f2.8 macro lens. These shots taken on dual axis macro focusing rails (Adorama). I tried forever to get better detail on the Tub's mouth (to no avail obviously). I really liked the detail on the skirts tho.

After PS Sharpen.....I didn't like what it did to the Tub's pic. Made the skirts look very pixelated....so still working that one....

Looks great, I know what you mean about shooting the same item over and over for a week...Are you going to be able to make it over this weekend?, I've got lots of interesting colored zoas for the macros shots. Jim
