The first flower looks like a dog rose, but am struggling to identify what the second flower is.
Edit: Is the second flower a hibiscus?

That second photo looks like a Zebra Mallow (Malva sylvestris). They are related to Hollyhocks, hibiscus, Rose-of-sharon shrubs, and other mallows. You can see the little seeds over on the left. On the Common Mallow (M. neglecta), they look even more like little wheels of cheese, so that weed is also called Cheeseweed. I've never eaten the flowers of the Zebra mallow, but I eat Hollyhocks, Rose-of-sharon, and hibiscus flowers, and I eat the wild mallow leaves and young seeds. They are worth getting to know!

By the way, I am extremely impressed by what some modern camera sensors are capable of, coming from using film and occasionally an old D40. Look at the processing I did on the first picture:
click for full size
Shot at a base of ISO6400 so I could stop down the lens a lot, and on top of that it came out underexposed so I pushed it by 3 and 2/3rds stops!

getting really good results with the reversed lens - you may be surprised to find that you prefer the look of these over the macro. Of course, it's much more difficult to use the reversed lens setup, but the first image you posted has a very nice quality to it

Thanks! Yeah I think I'll always keep the option in my kit, but maybe with higher magnification. I'm thinking a 20mm MF lens to cover wide angle shots that my 24-120mm won't do for, and to double as a very high magnification macro. I think the magnification with a reversed 20mm on a 35mm frame is about 3.4X.

Good plan. I reversed an Olympus 21mm f3.5 old manual lens the other day and was impressed. 4th pic down - https://steemit.com/photography/@timelapse/coneflower-ii-pollen-hunter

I'm liking the sharpness you're getting with what you have. It really displays itself in that last photo. The strands are very fine. I'm pretty sure you've told me in chat, but which lens are you currently using to do the reversal technique?

This was a 50mm f/1.8 Series E Nikon MF lens.

Love them, what is reversed manual focus lens tho?

It is when you attach a lens in reverse to the camera body, as in the front element of the lens is facing towards the camera body while the rear contacts are outward. Adapters are specifically made for this purpose.

Yep! These were taken with a reversed 50mm f/1.8 Nikon lens. I reverse it with my badass old Nikon BR-2 all-metal reversal ring (that apparently can damage AF cameras if you lock them, so I just twist it in a little). I couldn't find my 28mm lens today. The lower the focal length, the higher the magnification when reversed.

Beatiful shots. Any chance you could write a post about macro photography using the reversal technique?

It's so incredible to see individual pollen grains on bees. It makes their work seem more gritty somehow. They are the workhorses of pollination. And I really like your milkweed seeds, too -- so fluffy!
