It's been one of those weeks where it was the phone doing all the quick and dirty photography. Which means: Wayback Wednesday! So this time around, my random date took me back to 2011 and a wet day of chasing bird dogs around in swampy duck-retrieving circumstances with the ol' D300shorthair_duck_retrieve_3.thumb.jpg.aa2e56d28ece99f5280a780d1c47a100.jpg . So feel free to do some time travelling this week, and share those photos.

Okay this is an undeniably crappy macro image. It's the first (and potentially last) one I've shot using two lenses stacked nose-to-nose. In this case the lenses were an Ai-Nikkor 135mm f/2.8s mounted to the camera and an Ai-Nikkor 50mm f/1.8s reverse-attached to the 135mm. The set aperture on the 135mm was f/16, but I'm not sure how meaningful that number is when a "closeup lens" is used. The 50mm was set to wide open. The image is not cropped.

 

Oh, and the subject is a US 5-cent coin (a "nickel" in old-timer parlance) dated 2005.
