I took some closeups of the trichomes and wanted to share the technique with you all.
Better shots to come.. waiting for the mailman to deliver some filters

Trichome pic 100mm reversed f11 250sec

Firstly sorry to those with lack of cameras.. phones etc.

I am aware that there are people out there who know this but some may not.

I have a Digital SLR with various lenses and learned a trick.

Use the lense in reverse.. Hold it in place or by using an adapter ring.
open the aperture halfway and take a number of shots with varying shutter speeds and/or with flash.

Works better with a lense 100mm and up..

Tip.. If you dont have a microscope to view your tichomes then you can zoom in a photopackage after you have taken the digital pic.

You can also use the reversed lense to look through without the camera for a closer view.. OPen the aperture all the way.. for this

By the way I have only got into macro stuff since my grow journal and have just ordered a 10x magnfying filter for my lense.. will put some pics on when I do.

Arrived today a 60x- 100x mini microscope.. fantastic.. but impossible to use with the camera..
