Olympians,

I finally uploaded an image of my M-1 to my Web site.  Since I cannot find those
e-mails from those of you who contributed to this topic, I have to go by my
memories.

Since I don't remember who said what, I'm afraid that I have to summarize
without the names of the contributors.

This is apparently a macro project, and the 50mm/3.5 macro and 135mm/? macro
were suggested.  Somebody else suggested that it could be done by a scanner.

I have a scanner book which says a three-dimensional object can be scanned.
Without owning any macro lenses, I resorted to this technique.  The trick was to
come up with the right colored background.  The black was too dark for my M-1.
I ended up using two plastic lids of rectangular containers of my camera and
other things.  These are in blue.  After fiddling with different angles, I got
an image acceptable for the Web presentation.

Here it is.

I have also revamping my home page and I have added more photographs in my
reflection gallery.

Thanks for your suggestions, in particular to someone who suggested the scanner
approach

Thanks.
