Fun with macro photography
The following two pictures are the same picture, with the second one being a crop of the first one.
The image was taken with a 75-300mm lens with a 1.4x teleconverter with 57mm of extension tubes to make it all macro. The pepper shaker was about 18 inches away from the end of the lens.
The image was sized up with Adobe Camera Raw from 8 megapixels to 24 megapixels. The cropping is just under 4 megapixels. In one variant of this, I could see Laurie sitting on the couch next to me in the reflection. Quite amazing consider that the actualy size of the metal part of the shacker is barely 1/4" across.
Click on both of the following images for the full size version.
