Close Up Slaithwaite 003

Following on from dabbling with a bit of macro work with the EOS M I went out with a macro setup on the 5D Mk3 - a first! - despite owning the lens and convertor for years, I have never used them before. I wandered around Slaithwaite and along the Huddersfield Narrow Canal towpath. The light was very poor. Trying to handhold, get depth of field and accurate focus in the gloom was really hard. I tried different settings and ended up at ISO 1000. Besides meeting loads of people I knew, including my oldest daughter, I got some politely curious looks. Shame about the light, critical as it is.
