Cheers! I was actually just holding my lens reversed on this one and then snapped like hell to get at least one focussed photo ;)

Thanks so much! I wasn't actually expecting it to turn out that great as I basically just held the lens reversed on my camera but the result really amazed me. And with a little tweaking in photoshop I was able to bring out the red eyes and make everything a whole lot more crisp :D

Thank you! I used a normal 18-55mm lens at f3.5 and held it reversed (detached and flipped it around). You cant really focus this way so you gotta move the camera. Just look up lens reverse on google...

Thanks heaps! That's one of my favourite shots, together with the praying mantis eating that wasp :)

Thanks heaps! I absolutely love insect eyes, I just love I could get even closer,but that is about as much as my lens reverse adapter lets me.
