Amazing. And made even more special by the fact that its an MPe hand held!
Stunning iridescence, and detail in #4 ;thumbs:

Your photos never cease to amaze me! They're almost enough to make me want to go out and buy an mpe-65, all that's holding me back is the price and my own inability...

WOW !! Especially number 4
I've just commited to the raynox 250 so hope to be in this field soon although the MPE-65 is obviously the big daddy ultimate way to aim, having said that, the lens doesn't make the pics so massive credit to you and thanks for sharing

Superb shots Alistair as always.

I recall having a debate on TP a year or so back with someone with them stating that hand held shots with an MPE were not possible.

PROOF is directly above !
