First experiment with the freelensing technique. I held a wide open and reversed Contax Planar T* 50mm f1.4 lens in front of my AF-S Nikkor 50mm 1:1,4G to obtain a reproduction scale of approx. 2:1. Besides that, the technique enables a tilt/shift-like focus plane by simply moving the second lens around.

It's a pity, Spain defeated Germany 1:0 in the soccer world cup semi final. This picture is my tribute to the final match on Sunday, Spain vs. Netherlands.

After playing around with two 50mm lenses (one of them reversed), I tried the 18-200mm together with a reversed 50mm today. This combination yields some interesting results and a reproduction scale of approx 4:1.
