Default Trials with Bellows

Hi

Have been experimenting with a set of Nikon Bellows I had for Xmas. Lighting seems to be the chief bugbear, but with two Incandescent 40 watt table lights, managed to get a couple of shots worth persevereing with.
The first is of two cogs from a small wrist watch and the second Uncropped give an idea of their actual size when placed on a penny - this one is uncoped full frame. The working distance is about 4" and in time I hope to get the light right and overcome the vibration problem. I have no mirror lock up on my camera.
Both at f32 1/3shutter.
