Hello Mark, Actually, I sent this message last night, however, did not see circled back in my in-box, hence, sending once again. I have been visiting your web-site for quite some time and appreciate the photographs - bird photographs you have taken. I also read all the essays you have written - explaining your techniques. What I am very keen is the snowflakes you have photographed. I want to try it this winter and would like some guidance on that .. especially the set-up to go this close. I could not understand what you have mentioned under each photograph the configuration .... "200 f4 with stacked Rikenon 50mm f1.4, bellows, extension tubes" or "135mm f3.5 with stacked Rikenon 50mm f1.4, bellows, extension tubes" Would you please explain how you have used these configurations ? Would also appreciate any other guidance / issues to be considered. Thanks in advance.
