Extension Tubes & Teleconverters

This worm gear came from my 2012 Fiat 500 Abarth window control mechanism that I had to replace. If you know me, you know I like little motors so I dissected out the motor and found this interesting worm gear. I've posted the complete armature part of the motor before and I even shot this gear once but never posted it. So, with "Screw" for the Macro Mondays theme this week I decided to shoot it again and see what I could come up with after a bit of cleaning. So much for the rusty lag bolt...
The worm screw gear is relatively small and measures 0.35 in. x 1.0 in. I used the Nikon 55mm f/2.8 NIKKOR Micro lens w/PK-12&13 Extension Tubes, 41.5mm total extension and a 30 image focus stack at f/5.6 to keep everything sharp. The first time I shot this I found the orange and blue clamps that I used to "suspend" the gear had snuck back into the reflection so I wrapped the clamps with my gold ribbon and taped some to a piece of cardboard that I placed below the gear. I used blue tape to hold the ribbon to the cardboard and it got picked up but I liked the look by the gold. You can also probable guess the color shirt I'm wearing.
Given a colour modification & slight blur, the loft conversion continues to be a very popular way of extending the living space in houses.
No matter where I have lived, I have always gravitated to the birds of prey ... the raptors. To me, there's something fascinating about their beaks, their wings, the look of concentration and determination, but mainly their talons. When a raptor flies over me, especially when they bank and show off their underside, or topside, of their body, it's so cool. Red-tailed hawks are the most variable of all of the buteos, depending on where they are found and also their color morphs. Of course, don't forget how their feather patterns change as they molt. It really makes a challenge for species specific ID.
I could raptor all day long and be happy ... we get all sorts of raptors visiting us throughout the winter and some visit during the summer.
This red-tailed hawk flew over me at a relatively close range (though this image is most likely cropped some for balance). The extended wingspan was amazing to view, with every feather serving a purpose. Love these raptors.
Happy Monday!

From the archives, shot with a macro extension tube and an EF50mm F/1.8 STM lens, a budget combination that I was very fond of at the time.
Canon EF 4/70-200L (Non-IS)) with 3 stacked Kenko extension tubes. The good old EF Zoom turned out to be a cool Macro. The distance to the object was about 50cm.

Candid eye contact street photography from Barnsley, England. Carrying a box of human hair extensions, it looks to me like she is the 'wig shop' store owner from up the alleyway. Enjoy!

Germany. In the woods called "Schönbuch" nearby the City of Stuttgart.
SONY A7II (ILCE-7M2) with e-mount adapted old projection lens Leitz COLORPLAN CF 2.5/90. Sony full-frame in body image stabilization ON. ISO 100. 1/200s.

More photos of this mini sequence with this camera/lens combination can be found here: ---> In The Woods (1) and In The Woods (2).
Feel free to visit my albums. All my old lenses can be found there.
Reminds me that we need to be careful of which path we are taking.
A little planning, wise thinking and a word of prayer will always help.

Putting the cart before the horse .. these two frames are from last Wednesday's sunset at Ski Way Park.
This picture was taken in Dayton, Ohio at Wegerzyn Gardens with my 135mm lens + 20mm Extension tube. Better view in Light box.
As always thank you for your lovely comments.
For me, I enjoy finding a mushroom emerging from the lush moss and weeds, especially when I have a longish lens. Using it with an extension tube creates a soft, mystical look, capturing the scene's ethereal beauty. The interplay of textures - the infocused mushroom cap, the fuzzy moss, the tangled weeds - makes for a visually striking composition, well, to me. I find it necessary to adjust the EV.
I decided to bring out one of my old goblets that I have as the bottom would hold some of the bubble mix allowing me to "blow" a bubble with a straw to completely fill the bottom.
It was a tad chilly again today with -24C so I decided to put a 14mm kenko extension tube on the Canon EOS 1DS Mark III and use the Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 lens as it would autofocus allowing me to keep my hands in my mittens when trying to capture the frost forming in the bubbles.
Thank you for visiting my little space here on Flickr.
Someone building a house in our neighborhood suspended a Christmas tree from a construction crane. That must be a really long extension cord.

In 2000, the runway was again extended, this time to 2,781 m (9,124 ft). As landfill was not a realistic option, the extension was built on a platform, partly over the ocean, supported by 180 columns, each about 70 m (230 ft) tall. The runway extension was conducted by the Brazilian construction company Andrade Gutierrez and is recognized worldwide as one of the most difficult to achieve due to the type of terrain and orography.
Its innovative solution allowed Funchal to receive the Outstanding Structure Award in 2004 by the International Association for Bridge and Structural Engineering, which aims at recognizing the most remarkable, innovative, creative, or otherwise stimulating structure completed within the last few years.
Decided that I liked the wide crop better for this photo. I usually do 8x10 crops for instagram, but I really dislike the way a lot of them turn out. Especially since I usually compose my photos in camera at full frame (3x2) anyway.
M42-M42 36-90mm Helicoid extension tube. Quite handy to have.
