Macro photographs of guitar strings.

One of my favorite lenses in my collection is my Canon MP-E 65mm 2.8 1x-5x macro lens.  This lens is capable of magnifying objects to 5x magnification.  No other lens shoots this close without adding extention tubes and such.

In this series I have taken three photographs of a guitar string.  This is the thickest guitar string out of the six.  The first shot is 1x magnification, the second is 3x and the third is 5x.
