Look great Chuck! What camera are you using to get so close? My light box doesn't allow me to get closer than like 8-10 inches so I just crop for zoom, but it isn't that great. I'd prefer to get closer like yours.

Chuck, that’s a remarkable set. I can’t be bothered to pic a fave. I love them all. I too am curious what #2 is. Thanks. #2 is a center slice of a richardsons ranch moss thunderegg. Chuck

Wow! Those are some lookers, Chuck. Am I seeing this right? I have five previous episodes to find? I know what you mean about that first tumble. I have a few just like it and I don't think the depth comes through in pictures. I can't explain it, but you have it in your hand, you know... Thanks for taking the time to photograph these. Thanks- I think I got to episode 9 before things got busy. I might get the series going again when time allows. Chuck

I've read that before, I think my difference is probably my lens. Do you mind in more detail telling which Zeiss lens you have? E-mount?
