Having lost my confidence with this camera, decided to have a play today. Out came the 100mm macro, full extension tubes and Raynox.

Would welcome your thoughts

Nicely done Sara, I did some of these last year and pulled it in half to show the anthers side on, yes I know I'm a villain

A very nice shot - I lke the look of 'glitter' on the leaves.

Keep at it with the camera

Lovely macro and use of subtle colour What sort of magnification do you get with full tubes and a close up lens

Thanks for your comment. Not a clue with the magnification, but here's an idea of what it was like with just the lens

No cropping done of either image.
