One of my favorite movies of all time is Fantastic Voyage. ; A SF thriller of a miniaturized sub which gets injected into a human body. ; This was made long before Body Wars was ever thought of.

Over the next month I will be concentrating on the world of Fantastic Voyage and macro photography. ; I got a taste of it today when I visited the green houses of the College of Environmental Science & Forestry (ESF) here in Syracuse, NY. ; Not one plant, tree or flower could live anywhere in NY state so there were many exotic species. ; I used a Nikon 50mm f/1.8 lens with a 10x close up filter in front. ; Not as high magnification as reverse lens macro but it got me into seeing small things.

I have no idea what any of these plants are. ; It was nice being in a warm and humid green house as it has been very dry and cold around here this week.
 
nice work Scott. I have that lens and a few close up filters someone gave me. I may have to try that out this spring
 
First off, beautiful images Scott! ; Very nicely done! ; Secondly, I just began reading Scott Kelby's first book. ; The very first Chapter? ; Taking great shots of flowers! ; I was going to get some flowers from a florist to practice tomorrow. Your solution is much better! ; Only ; dont have greenhouse nearby. ; So Shop Rite flowers tomorrow for me!
 
I have that on DVD Scott. a dbl set that came with Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea. I love Sci-Fi flicks. My favs being T-2 and Forbidden Planet. On blu-ray they look fantastic. Forbidden Planet looks like it was made last week and not 55 years ago
 
Digging further into macro. ; Here are some Reverse Lens Macro photos.
