Messing around with some photo gear. Interested in what you think about it.

Rice grain on a CD ... ?? Details look quite good.

Or a mothership.

I like the rendition of the rice grain.  A UV flashlight could enhance your joy of shooing.  :D

Darn it! I should have known that i can't hide anything for you guys. Indeed a rice grain on a CD, flash directly above. Reversed 35 F/2.0 on bellows (cheap *bay thing) on D810.

I was surprised by the lack of glare, since the flash head was almost directly aimed at the rear element of the lens.

Thanks Bjørn and Akira.

Thanks John and Peter for looking and commenting.

It's what you do when you have time on your hands and not the environment that some of the forum inhabitants have nearby  :)
