IMO, name the title as "3" instead of "three" will be better.

Yes agreed "3" and not "Three". Very clever title that way for this incredible shot. Just magic mega, I love just love it.

All the best Johnny, amazing "3"

the reason is simple , I am able to search the text "three" than "3" in the forum.

Question What lens + accessories was use?

Hi Mega, I have been paying regular visit to your online photo gallery

Some of the close-up data print indicated a Canon 70-200 was used. How do you acheive such a magnification + closeup with this lens? I'm newbie in macro..

Thanks Mega, do you think the Canon 500D can be used on Nikon 80-200mm f/2.8D, since both are 77mm diameter? Or is there other alternative 77mm closeup filter?

yes ... 500D 77mm will work well for 80-200mm f2.8D

there is no other alternative 77mm closeup filter except HOYA closeup filters .. which will give more distortion

Here is a description of heliopan from CS member dlock:

Heliopan glass filters are made exclusively with glass from Schott (Zeiss) the world's finest optical glass supplier. Heliopan filters are "dyed in the mass" and ground, polished and coated to the highest standards of the German optical industry. All Heliopan screw-in type and series size filters are mounted in precision black anodized brass rings to eliminate binding or cross threading and to ensure optimal alignment. Heliopan´s new slim mounts are made of black anodized brass stock and have so little rim in front of the lens (5.4 mm) that they will not vignette with lens as short as 21 mm. Yet even though they are so slim, they still retain front threads for a lens cap, a lens hood or even stacking a second filter! (except on Polarizers) Heliopan is the only German filter manufacturer that exclusively only uses Zeiss (Schott) glass. Heliopan cuts, grinds, polishes and coats their filters with the same techniques and equipment as is used for the finest German camera lenses!
The care, quality and performance of Heliopan's filters make them simply the world's finest filters! All Heliopan filters are hard coated on both sides, unlike other filters which are only coated on one side.
