So since we moved places last December i haven't really got a chance to use my ultra macro lens again . For those of you that don't know what an ultra macro lens is : [Laowa ultra macro lens](https://www.venuslens.net/product/laowa-25mm-f-2-8-2-5-5x-ultra-macro-2/) Some of the photos on that website are doen with stack photography , meaning they are build up from +/- 50 photos or more to get a complete sharp subject . i'll just stick to the single shot photography for now . two weeks ago i made a post on how i decorated my balcony : https://ecency.com/hive-14396/@stresskiller/decorating-my-balcony I'm glad that i can say that the plants are still alive and doing very well so far . Today i will be using the Sony A7II camera and the Sigma105mm lens and also the Laowa 25mm ultramacro lens . Ok let's start with the scabiosa flowers on the normal macro lens a side view  <center> Sony A7II + Sigma 105mm </center> And a top view  <center> Sony A7II + Sigma 105mm </center> The chocolate mint plant and the morocon mint plant are both doing very well, the wife has already made several pots of tea from them.  <center> Sony A7II + Sigma 105mm </center> The back side of a scabiosa flower  <center> Sony A7II + Sigma 105mm </center> at first all the scabiosa flowers look the same , until you take a closer look .  <center> Sony A7II + Sigma 105mm </center> these two look the same , and they are but how about the next one ?  <center> Sony A7II + Sigma 105mm </center> Do you think this one is the same too ?  <center> Sony A7II + Sigma 105mm </center> Have a good look ...  <center> Sony A7II + Sigma 105mm </center> Ok time for the Ultra macro this image is from the flower above ,you can see the pollen  <center> Sony A7II + Laowa 25mm Ultra Macro </center> And this is from that other Scabiosa flower also with pollen  <center> Sony A7II + Laowa 25mm Ultra Macro </center> it actually looks like something from out of space  <center> Sony A7II + Laowa 25mm Ultra Macro </center> And that is the fun part of ultra macro magnifications up to 5x , here you can even see a hair on the pollen  <center> Sony A7II + Laowa 25mm Ultra Macro </center> And here you can even count the pollen , the only downside is the narrow DOF with ultra macro .  <center> Sony A7II + Laowa 25mm Ultra Macro </center> And just when i wanted to go back inside i spotted this tinny thing on a spiderweb , first i thought it was a pray , but a closer look reveiled a itsy bitsy tinny spider .  <center> Sony A7II + Laowa 25mm Ultra Macro </center> how small ? +/- 1mm high and no more then 3mm long , good luck with manual focus , cause with ultra macro there is no autofocus .  <center> Sony A7II + Laowa 25mm Ultra Macro </center> The spider didn't like my flash light and ran for safety .. and this is also how i was able to measur the hight and length , the grey area on the left of the spider is 3mm  <center> Sony A7II + Laowa 25mm Ultra Macro </center> Not my best frontal of a spider but i didn't get another chance  <center> Sony A7II + Laowa 25mm Ultra Macro </center> After this image the spider ran away behind a closet i guess he / she wanted some privacy .  <center> Sony A7II + Laowa 25mm Ultra Macro </center> That is it for today , i hope you liked the macro presentation . <br> All images created by me @stresskiller , and all rights reserved ! <br> Hope to see you soon on one of my Communities: <br> [](https://ecency.com/created/hive-15966) *For all your macro photography* @hive-15966 <br> [](https://ecency.com/created/hive-14396) *Tell us your story with 5 photos and 150 words* @hive-14396 <br> [](https://ecency.com/signup?referral=stresskiller) <br> <center><a href=https://discord.gg/4b9nnz3Hfh>You can find me on Ecency Discord</a></center><br> <center> [](https://ecency.com/hive-111011/@tokenpimp/pimp-shit-v42-its-a-backhand-slap) = Let your inner PIMP run free = </center> <br> <center>Do you want to grow a future on hive and need some help ? <br> Have a look at [Apis hive ](https://apishive.blog/)  [Apis hive Discord ](https://discord.gg/QgxzRzQRju)</center><br> Requirements to participate are : * No more then 30% of your HP delegated * Your KE is not higher then 1.8 * No powering down And most of all motivated and dedicated to stay here for the long run. <br><br><br> sorry for the small edit need to test a little bug , just want to make sure something works correctly .  <center> Sony A7II + Sigma 105mm </center> <br>
