Blue-eyed Grass... experimenting with extension tubes...

UPDATE: Just changed the upload date on this a moment ago because of the second "honor" noted below. I'm quite pleased! :-)

 

The black background is a function of my inexperience with extension tubes... I'm still trying to get the hang of figuring out what ISO and aperture settings to use. In the meantime, I rather like this which was taken outdoors in sunlight with the flower above a bed of mulch.

 

This tiny flower is about the size of a dime... approximately one centimeter in diameter. View Large On Black
