We just arrioved home from the North Texas Swap/RU about 9 AM. About 9:30 my new rig/ adaptor was delivered from China. This allows me to have an 800mm Macro lens that focuses down to 2 feet. This lens was a 135 MM used on my Medium Format camera.
I got a bit excited and went to the Cosmos patch to see what was happening there. The place was swarming with Buckeyes, so I will now bore everyone with some of the results. I am using this on my new Pentax K10D, 10.2 MP.

1 of 6. All of these are on the Cosmos, taken in about 2 minutes. I noticed that some have an orange strip near the back of their wings and others have yellow.
