Thought I would share some lens reversal pics some that might be new to photography might find it interesting and fun. You can purchase a lens reversal ring off of ebay or any photo store it has to macth your filter size of your lens you put your lens on backwards and focus by moving the camera back and forth. Just some fun stuff .

If you dont have a lens reversal kit just hold the lens tight to the body and hope for no light leaks.

you take your lens and put it on backwards you can buy the adapater to do this or just hold it against the body of the camera and it magnify the image the way you focus is by moving the camera back and forth
