deep space traveler

This spaceship? is actually a small imperfection inside a slab of granite rock.  The dots  are flecks of debris reflected into the lens.  Taken with a 50mm normal lens mounted in reverse position on a fully extended bellows.  I am guessing the magnification is around 4X  but thats just a guess.  The spaceship was so small, it was invisible to a naked eye.

This is a super macro (the actual image size captured was about the size of a pinhead) of the inside of a granite rock slab.  Lighting was from the rear with a strong flashlight shining through the rock.  I used a Olympus OMD with an old 50mm macro lens reverse mounted on a bellows with full extension.  Lens to subject distance was about one inch.

Details inside a quartz rock. This macro was about 4X magnification – taken with a 50mm lens mounted in reverse on a fully extended bellows. Lighting was from behind with a powerful flashlight.
