Can others edit my Photos
Photos OK to edit
These were taken by placing the lens from an old cd drive over the ipod lens. I didn't have anything handy to secure the subject so they were all handheld using a tweezers. I never realized just how much my hands shake! I got the idea from here.

Image quality is pretty crappy, but I thought it was a neat idea and wanted to share them.


1.) Small spring, roughly 1cm in diameter.


2.) Same spring, different angle


3.)Circuit board, numbers roughly 1mm wide.


4.) Penny


5.)Eye of a needle, about 1mm wide.


6.)Needle point, about 1/3mm


 
Getting a pretty strong magnification there - an impressive result indeed. I'd be interested to see what you get if you photograph a ballpoint pen end (mostly because that is thus far the smallest thing Ive taken a macro shot of)
 
I nabbed one of a pen nib for you. Here is the best I was able to grab. The camera on the ipod touch is less than impressive, lol.
