Happy New Year Canna!

Those macro shots are stunning. Are you doing that with your camera or with a microscope setup? My wife just got a new camera that does macro up to 1cm away which would be cool. Even her SLR with a true macro lens doesn't do that well.

I have more felt cut out and am sewing again today I think. Thanks again for the inspiration on that!


Bob

Thanks Bob! I'm doing those with my Samsung Galaxy s5 phone. I tape a jewelers loupe over the lens of the phone, then rubber band that to a tripod most of the time to take the pic and have no shaking. The recent pics were just done by making sure my elbows were stationed and my hands were steadier. Careful when getting in there with the loupe....the sticky stuff hits the lens before you know it.

How big is your loupe?

I ask because you get very good edge clarity.
The two lenses I use with my S5 are about dime sized. I don't get the whole picture in focus, usually just the center third.
Maybe my lenses are just too cheap

Her pictures are amazing are they not Radogast. I liked the coral picture the best, it really looks like it could have been taken under the sea

Canna, your garden is like it always is, impeccable

Hey my friend! In my experience cheap magnifying lenses will cause that center focus issue. Also, if you don't have the magnifier close enough to the lens on the phone it will cause issues. I tape mine good and tight directly over the lens on the phone.
Here is the one I have, it's an illuminated (led) brand and I believe mine is the 40x...

I removed the swing out part because it kept it from sitting tightly over the lens.

Here's my actual one, yes .....it needs a good cleaning. I'm getting the rubbing alcohol out now. That will cause my pictures to be fuzzy and unfocused in spots. Duh! LOL (that's what I meant about getting too close to the sticky's.)

Hope that helps!



Oh, I don't use the illumination on it. The battery went dead long ago. I didn't like the led light color on the close ups anyway.

The lens looks clean but I think the housing needs a warsh... I've been toying with buying a macro lens for my S-5. They can be had for about $10 with a mounting thing included. Trying to ignore the loop and rubber band gauntlet that Fanny has thrown down because I know my ass will get kicked to the curb.

I literally laughed out loud PeeJay. You never fail me....
I haven't seen the macro lenses for them, now I"m going to have to go look. Any specs on them as far as sharpness and edges etc.?
Dang, I'm headed to the net....



Oh, and I lied on your thread. Top gal has another clone in the grow room that isn't a reveg. That one looks normal. danged shame when you can't remember what you have in your own grow. LOL

I can feel the skin on my neck burning.

My loupe didn't come with indicator lights: I've been taking photos through the wrong end!

Re: Cannafan's Perpetual Grow - Where Everything Changes - Autos - Photos - Seeds & M

Okay, I looked into some photos taken with the macro lens. Not the sharpest, but that could be due to the photographer and camera shake. It's definitely worth the price if it's around ten bucks.
Scamazon has a slew of a kit for around $55.00 that includes:

Camera Lens Kit for Samsung Galaxy S5 incl. 12x Telephoto Lens / Fisheye Lens / 2in1 Macro and Wide Angle Lens / Tripod / Phone Holder / Holder Ring / Hard Case / Velvet Bag / Cleaning Cloth

Wide angle lenses are very useful and I do love a good fisheye effect now and then.

I might think real hard on the macro lens, combine that with the loupe...heck I might be able to peer right inside a trichome. ;-)

Yeah, I started my search on Cramazon. Dig deeper. I'm not sure you need anything. You are doing just fine with what you got! I like taking nice pot pictures. I break cameras like a minecrafter breaks blocks... I keep looking at DSLRs... Then I remember that I'll get more satisfaction from spending $500 on fancy coffee drinks.

DSLR's...still pretty pricey. Cell phones are the cameras of the future....

I think this one looks like beautiful deep sea Coral:

And Lil' purps underwear are getting lots of sticky's too:

Still no amber.

dang, Canna, that shot of lil purp is outstanding...reminds me a lot of PeeJay's pics.....I am on a mission to jack 3 awesome photos of trichs to blow up and hang above my living room sofa....yep, I'm that enamored and love the trich pics that much....I prefer them closer with no leaves because unless you are a grower or an aficionado, most people would have no idea of what the photos are about....my property is transforming from a horse facility to a grow facility....funny how age and life changes bring about property changes....I am so lucky to have the room and the options.....by the way, I don't own a cell phone because there is no coverage in these boonies that I live in, so I can't easily take pics.....which leads me to heartily appreciate what all of you do in your posts.....

PS I would be absolutely honored to have one of your pictures in my home....not that I wouldn't ask for permission first....your A-Okay would mean even more.....

Use any one you like Sis. I'm sure there are pretty good trichomes pics in my previous journals as well. OR go to the photo gallery....but there are ton of pics in there and would take days. There are quite a few that aren't mine, long story...from my previous moderator days here. The photos have the member name on them that uploaded, so that's one way to tell.
