Crazy Macro

check these out...
they were taken by my sigma 24-70mm...
although its minimum focus distance is 33cm...
but with my DIY macro lens, i managed to reduce it to about 15cm...
then only i managed to take all these crazy things... hahahah
i love the crazy bokeh effect... wow
life is so great... photography is crazy great!!!

  2. not extension tube. i once considered to use extension tube. checked with sigma and was told that that lens cannot use extension tube and it won't reduce the focal distance.

    i used magnifying glass to attach on my lens hood.
    its magnificatioin factor is normally about 2x. so, inherently maintaining lens' default min focal lenght, i already have bigger object on my frame. and as i move further to the object (since it allows), i get even bigger object.
    because a magnifying glass has a definite focal length, therefore anything slightly behind the focal length is completely blur out, this is what i was impressed...
