Some stuff taken with the extension tubes

These are all a bit rubbish . They were all taken with the tubes I finally got! ;D I can see it's going to take a bit of practice, they're not easy to use handheld - though I'm sure there's a technique I'll tap into sooner or later. Didn't help that every time I went outside in search of bugs, it rained > so there were only one or two tiny flies about. More of that in better weather though

For now, here's a few:

Re: Some stuff taken with the extension tubes

Quite. The one of the fly where you can see each individual cell of the eye is brilliant.

Rubbish!! My foot. They're very good.

Re: Some stuff taken with the extension tubes

Thanks all I didn't think they were much good, thanks for the encouragement!

I got the Kenko ones in the end (not even 100% sure which atm ) they were S/H from someone, and they do havethe autofocus thing, I'm not sure it's necessary, but it can be useful!

Re: Some stuff taken with the extension tubes

8 and 10 are my favorites......the fly's shadow in number 8 does look uncannily like a bottle. Dare I say it, a blue one, sorry.
