Fun with magnification !!

Here are a few photos I did a wile back, using a old (film) bellows to magnify about 10 times !
                 The photos are full frame , as seen in the view finder ( not cropped in )

                                                            First the back of a penny....

This is what it looked like..... simple one strobe flash (on left side ) with a steady light on to see.
                                        Using a Nikon D70 S digital camera,

                                                                   and a dime....

                                 same dime,  only as close as I could get,    



                              Have a great day.......       thanks        ----     peter
