Sea Monster - a photo on Flickriver

Sea Monster

            I was going to play a guessing game here, but I have a feeling most of you would recognize what this is, so I might as well spill the beans. My hubby had some drill bits lying around and I thought they would make a great photographic subject. (Some of you might disagree :) ) I did several shoots, trying to get the focus just right, and also tried it with four different lenses and many different apertures. In the end, I had a few I liked, but decided to post this one. 

Shot with Jena Pancolar 50mm f1.8 lens and 32mm Kenko extension tube, and six image focus stacking.

Taken in: Canada / British Columbia / North Vancouver / Capilano Highlands (show map)
