Albert, great photos as always. I'm not sure I's be brave enough to use reversed lenses in the field LOL!

Thanks. I used a reversed Pentax 28mm lens for the first photo and a reversed Nikkor 18-55mm D40 kit lens for the other photo. You can checkout my setup here: http://www.flickr.com/people/prodigi/
