My little espresso machine.

Forgot to post a link here when I posted this one. No adapter but a lot of the shots were with macro:

And you can click on the thumbs on the right side, click on the link above the pic that says "All Sizes" and then click on the link above the pic that says "OOriginal (1920 x 1080)", the screen grabs are pretty impressive.

Nice work. I hadn't seen much use of macro on the Ex until this. Is it true that focus in macro mode is auto only? Was this a problem?

[Benjamin Eckstein]

Macro is not auto only.

Thanks Alexander, glad ya liked it. The focus ring has to be in the forward position, not in the back where it's manual, but it doesn't have to be on auto focus.

Simply brilliant! The shots are great, composition very stylized, and your grading is awesome. Great work.

Now if you would just share your coffee philosophy and secrets we'd all be better off.

Thanks Steven, glad ya liked the grading, when I was doin it I thought "That's a bit overkill" followed by "...but I like it!".

As for coffee, funny you should ask cuz I actually didn't make it the way I like to make it cuz I didn't want it common knowledge!!! But start with a good machine and use Illy, that's all your gonna get outta me. =)
