I've been fascinated by some of the wonderful macro photography shown
here of late, and sometime last week I had one window open with
examples of that technique, and another on the page of Leica user
portraits and self-portraits. This caused an idea?possibly a very bad
idea?to pop into my head: might a macro self portrait be fun to try?

Sometime later, and I'd made this:

Those of a nervous disposition may want to think long and hard before
clicking the 'show large' button.

Lumix GH1 with 55mm f3.5 micro-Nikkor. In order to squeak back on
topic, the title is?as I'm sure you know?from that lifelong Leica user
Stanley Kubrick's film 2001: A Space Odyssey.
