Day 49: Think tiny

Karin’s theme for the week is tiny
so I immediately pulled out the big guns and took a photo of our fence:

Specs:
Canon 300D
Sigma 70-300mm 4-5.6 APO MACRO lens (giving me 1:2)
with a Sigma Achromatic Macro lens (giving me 1:1)

Just for reference, this is a photo of a British penny with said combo (no cropping):

(A British penny is approximately the same size as an American or Canadian penny, but since I don’t have any comparision I can’t confirm exact dimensions. I know a 10p coin and a quarter are the same size, but, um, it didn’t fit in the photo. I love my lens.)

Comments

If I knew where I put my British money, I’d go check, but from memory I think they are very close! I do know that our dime (10 cents) is very small and I kept getting confused because your 10p is much bigger…but I finally got it straight. ;)
