Self-portrait at the tip of a ballpen

Can't go out to bird yet, so here's having some fun with reversed lens macros. I beg your pardon on the extreme distortion of the ballpoint (probably 0.5 mm in diameter). This shot now becomes my new avatar. ;D

7D + 37 mm ET + 100 2.8 macro (at f/11) + reversed 50 1.8 II (manually stopped down to f/2.8), 2.5 sec, ISO 400, manual exposure/focus, 455B/410 support, available light.

Ha ha ha . Macro galore due to Off birding season. I should try reverse macro when time permits.

Boy, try this reverse lens stuff on one of your patients.... I reckon you'll start to see the cellular structure of their enamel. ;D
