Now I know why I got the macro gear - ps these were darn hard to take with a window to one side of me I could only get the flash (held in my right hand) from a few angles - I also had to hold my camera and lens and shoot with my left hand - its possible - just</p>

<p>And a 100% crop from that shot - with no sharpening or anything!</p>

<p>Those first two shots were taken with a Canon 400D, sigma 70mm macro, a teleconverter (I forget if it was 1.4 or 2* though I think 1.4) and a Raynox DCR 250 macro filter</p>

<p>More DCR playing around but this time no TC (I might also have taken away the DCR but I really can't recall now sadly).</p>
<p>These were taken on a window during the day (mostly overcast day but not too dark) and with the flash I was able to get this effect totally by accident.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ps - those were hard shots to get even with a short workind distance things were dark in that lens - plus the odd angles and poor holding of the camera (left hand remember) made things really tricky!</p>
