Pringles macro photo galleries
Hi everyone!
I recently stumbled across Professor Bikey Bike’s white peppercorn photo (and his other explorations into macro, taken with the Pringles macro extension tubes, featured here on Photocritic a couple of months ago.
The big question - I had a great time building that lens and creating the tutorial for it - but who else built one? And do you have your galleries on the internet? If you have, why not leave a comment here? In a couple of weeks, I’d love to run a story featuring some of the best Pringles can photos available on the internet.
Have you read my Macro book?
I am rather proud of the fact that I have written a book about macro photography. It looks like that →
Hang on, did I just say a book? Sorry about that. All modesty aside, it's the book on macro photography. It's got a huge chapter on equipment, tons of info about the various styles and topics, a chapter on lighting, and even a chapter on digital darkroom stuff especially for macro photography.
Seriously, this book is 288 pages long, and it's got everything you ever wanted to know. And loads you probably didn't want to know, but that might come in useful anyway.
Get your copy of the book from Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk today! If you prefer, you can buy a signed copy directly from me from this page.

Here are some pictures I made with my EOS 300D and an old 50mm lens borrowed from school: http://flickr.com/photos/wolever/search/tags:macro/

I’ve placed most photos on professorbikeybike.com, on flickr using “pringles macro”for the tag–as of now, nobody else has picked up on that tag, but it would be cool if they did…

I finally had some success with your pringles lens this morning, the convenient blizzard rendered some interesting material

I wonder if it would be possible to make this work for a video camera?

Very cool Chiba!
Was it just me, or were the exposures really dark? I found that, with my 300D and 50mm lens, the exposure had to be a couple seconds or longer. Granted, it is inside, but does that get better? Is it just me?
