Im the newbie in town so I have no CC but I do like the screw! I like the angle but thats just me. I look at it more from a buyers prospective. I do not know enough to cc just me 2cents

Well, good enough. You did half of a C&C (the commenting part). Thank you! Its strange the type of effects you can get by holding a reversed lens in front of another. Tilt effects, vignetting, all sorts of cool little things. Its fun experimenting. Now I won't have to hold it by hand as I just got a lens coupler in the mail.

I like #1 (your reverse macro) and I would like #4 if the focus was squarely on the screw head. #2 I can't figure out wth it is! I'm not a huge fan of the resulting vignetting, I think it only really works with #3. Let's see some of the tilt effects next time!

#4 is a result of manual tilt effect...it produced the arc looking OOF area at top...it was an accidental discovery...I was manually holding the lens and noticed I had angled the reversed lens ever so slightly...

I really like the "Star Silhouette" photo...the light edging of the leaves is spectacular...in my humblest of humble opinionated opinions....

I like the "7" image by itself. 1,2 and 3 combined as a triptych might be good. Otherwise they have no meaning/interest to me.

Thank you frisii! I didn't think of doing it as a triptych, but I will now...

Actually, i like the star one better. The seven image would be better if framed equally with the horizontal strip, top and bottom. What is that in #2?

If the focus was right where my eye wanted it to be (on the screw head), I think that would be pretty cool. Looking at it again, I do like the overall effect, but then again I'm totally obsessed with tilt-shift right now. Want to marry it and have its babies.

Whoa...whoa...whoa...whoa...whoa...whoa...whoa...whoa....

Number two is the end of a branch. I kept it as the part that is in focus looks (to me) like a chicken's head...

I like the Star Silhouette best. I wish a little more of #2 was in focus.
