Looking for some tips from the pros here...

I tried to take my first pic through the mag glass today and it was a horrible failure. I couldn't get my smartphone's camera to focus through the mag glass on the spider beneath. Any tips for getting good pictures?

I'm using a Samsung Galaxy phone and the original gray mag glasses if that makes a difference.

Thank you in advance!

Try holding the mag lens flush with the phone's lens (whichever one it's using)

It takes some adjusting distance wise from camera to mag glass.  Some pics take me awhile to get.

Beautiful composition! :salute:
I wish my hands were steady enough to take a picture like that. Maybe I'll take a chair outside and try to rest my hands on it. For now I'll just enjoy looking at your pictures, and all the other pics on this thread.

Thanks Barry, it's a very pleasing plant and makes itself at home is all sorts of odd little places. I think I'm getting the hang of magnification phone photos too.

That's a great shot of that bee too. Well timed pic!  :cheers:
