After they left, we discovered four (or more) tiny plastic duckies placed about the dining and living rooms. I took this today and sent it to Sam in an email titled, "We Fear NOT the DUCK!" < http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Alan+Magayne-Roshak/Tabletop/20250717_MR_Duck-Man_DSF8356.jpg.html > On my office desk I used a 35mm f/3.5 PC Nikkor + Kipon Tilt Adapter & Telesar +2 Split Field filter at f/32 on a Fuji X-E2, one 60w. desk lamp and four small mirrors. I thought it would be a fun challenge to try and get a huge duck with the figure; this was as large as I could get it and keep focus. The duck is 15mm from tail to beak. -- Alan Alan Magayne-Roshak, Senior Photographer, Emeritus University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Photo Services (Retired) UPAA Photographer of the Year 1978 UPAA Master of the Profession 2014 amagayneroshak at gmail.com <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Alan+Magayne-Roshak/> "All the technique in the world doesn't compensate for an inability to notice.
