They are indeed nice shots Paul. Did you use the standard lens or did you have an attatchment in front of or in between the body of the camera and lens

Thanks for the comments.
I used the 70-300mm lense with the Raynox Dcr 250 lense attached to the front of the lense. It was taken at a Focal Length of 70 mm .
