Thank you Konstantin. Your photos inspired me to shoot this.

Done with my Helios 44-2 58mm ƒ2 lens held reversed in front of the Minolta MD 50mm ƒ1.7 lens. Some people call this the poor man's macro technique.

Yeah sure, I could get better result with a proper macro lens (and a nicer film) but I find the hard work to get this more satisfying.

Or at least that's my excuse for being cheap.

Still, there is a great great shot 10 meters around you. Go and get it.
