L'Etude de Poisson
I decided to buy some fish (specifically Sprats, from the genus Sprattus) and I decided to get Natasha out (Natasha being my camera) and take some really close up pictures of the fish.
I thought fish were the perfect subject to test the macro capabilities of my camera. I set up the fish in nice compositions and shot them using many calibrations. It was fun. Although at the end of the exercise the flat smelled like fish, I decided to eat the subjects later but I had just had chicken earlier, and frankly the smell repulsed me, not particularly bad, but very...fishy, I know what you are thinking "How else is fish supposed to smell?" well, the fish I usually eat a.k.a sardines and tuna have a nice smell to them, Sprats have a very common bad fish smell.
Anyway, enjoy my fish

Hi Julian,
Good test of your macro lens. The last images are not in the best focus yet. Try another super close up on some other subject - smaller than sprats and let me see.
