nevermind. I guess it's not worth it.

I'll go first I guess... This is using the Pentax Kit lens 18-55, mounted on front, with a 50mm prime backwards at the end of that for 1:1. Click for full size

oops...see I didn't even follow my own rule...Flickr kills the EXIF on smaller sizes.

It would also be nice if EXIF data be posted about the shot, if it was deleted from the picture

Basic things like F#, shutter speed, camera model and accessories used to take the shot (lenses, filters, tripods) would help a lot.

Nice shot. Macro filter? Camera?

Heater918, in reference to your pictures in Post #4

Picture 1: Sorry but this really has no artistic value, poor focus, subject is small and the lighting is harsh...no saving this one, but thats ok.

Picture 2: Better, but still the subject is out of focus

Picture 3: Much better, more interesting perspective and better focus

PS: Please refer to the first post and try to use that format or at the ver least clean up your code.

Why is it not worth it? If you want I will sticky this and make it official. I was thinking about it at work today but didn't realize you gave up on it

I think it is a good idea. You just have to be patient as it isn't the primary focus of the site and the replies come in a little slower in here

If you would kindly delete my 2 post in this thread and the thread starter re-post his original post, I think that would solve the situation.
