Another close up

Played with another technique from the book on close up photography. This consists of reversing a lens. You can buy special reversing rings, or do as I did. Just hold the lens to the camera on a tripod and set the timer and cross your fingers. I took quite a few shots before getting what I think is an ok image of a white rose. I have to say this book has stirred some thought about trying more close up shots. Thanks James.
