Blurryeyed Loc: NC Mountains.
 
It has been years since I posted in this forum, when you guys went to focus stacking I decided that it was just too much work. Anyway I was sitting at the table on my back patio this afternoon when I noticed this guy scampering about. So I grabbed my camera, a flash unit, and reverse mounted an old Vivitar 28mm film era lens and was able to get this.

To my surprise, one of the most difficult aspects of shooting reversed lens on a DSLR is being stopped down and getting enough light to focus, I am now shooting with a mirrorless and the EVF absolutely amplifies light so focusing is no longer a problem with a mirrorless.

I've moved away from Florida and I am not sure that I will find the greens up here in the Carolina Mountains.
