Set-up for up to half life-size at the sensor.

This is an image of my manual focus Tamron Adaptall-2 Model 52A SP 70-210mm f3.5-4 CF Tele Macro Lens with attached Tamron Adaptall-2 Pentax KA Mount on my Pentax K20D camera. I originally purchased this lens and two other Tamron Adaptall-2 lenses along with two Tamron Adaptall-2 mounts, a Vivitar KA 17-28mm lens, and my used K20D camera body on an order from KEH, which arrived in mid-September, 2010. I did some testing of this lens, but seemed to favor the other Tamron Adaptall-2 70-210mm lens on the order, the Model 19AH. I was looking for a lens that would provide me with quality close-up images up to half life-size at the sensor good for flowers, large insects, and frogs, which this lens will do, and with a good working distance. I decided this past Spring to give this lens another look and have enjoyed the results so much that I tend to grab this lens first for this type of imaging. This lens provides me with clear and sharp images and cost me all of $29 US.

I imaged my camera and lens in rural upstate Columbia County, New York, USA. For this image, I used my Canon Digital Rebel XT (350D) Camera and Canon EF-S AF 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 Lens, hand held, manually focused, Focal Length 45mm, ISO 400, f10, 1/100 sec., with fill-in flash from camera's built-in electronic flash. This is a full resolution Large JPEG and is Straight Out Of Camera (SOOC) and is without any post-production, adjusting, editing, cropping, or re-sizing.

When I previewed this image before uploading, I noticed an error with this set-up, clearly visible in the image. Does anyone else see it?
