Just right when I recveive new equipment, of course I jump out the house and test the new stuff. While one part of the equipment goes into macro – magnifying small objects like insects or flowers, the other goes into very strong tele-zoom.

If you move to that extreme, you’ll discover new opportunities

I like to share with you a few images that I’ve taken

Halogen bulb- macro

Obviously this image doesn’t look very interesting as I just made it from the floor in deactivated state.

But as soon I turn on the lights, mount my macro and play with the camera settings, I’ll reveal the mechanism of the bulb. While everything around the wire is covered by a slight dark grey-blue color, the wire lights up as the electrical current flow developes hight temperatures.

Spider dew – macro

Just yesterday morning we had dew on the plants and this looks very great, when they are covered with spider nets. In our area we have them alot and you will realize them from far distance already.

When taking an image of the whole net, it doesn’t really look so special at all – it even looks like a chaos. But guess what happens if I use my macro again.

Suddenly the the net and the water drops get more attention and release their full beauty. This is the reason why we see the spider nets when having dew.

Upcomming Sunset -telezoom

In the late evening, the sun hides beyond the trees and sometimes we get a lovely sunset to see.

This time I used my tele-zoom lens and attached a converter to magnify the image once more. This time I changed the settings again. Otherwise the bright light would have caused just a white image.  And that’s what I got again.

This stuff has been a big investment, that I never regret
