    Hi Everyone,
    Took this last night - who knew that you could have so much fun with a macro lens...:D
    1D3 105mm macro + stacked converters
    ISO 400
    f/2.8 1/160 sec
    Exp comp @ +2/3
    Manual focus HH
    Minimal PP - just curves as far as I remember.
    Look forward to your C & C's!
    Best regards to all,
    Nicki

    Nicki, The curved line and colors make this special. I can't wait to see more of your creative mind from behind the MACRO LENS!!!:):)

    Loverly. Denise-like. Was this with the 2X and the 1.4X? I love the little bit of yellow in the lrc.

    I love the softness and gradations of the color. The lines create a beautiful composition. I am always amazed that someone can look at something so common and get an image that few people can find.
    Stunning.

    Nice image and application, Nicki

    Nice soft feel and colors.

    You'll love the macro. Still saving for my 180mm. Hopefully someday!

    Thank you so much everyone for your positive feedback and very kind comments. When you try something new you are never quite sure...:)
    Artie, my apologies - in my hurry to get to work on time this morning I wrote 'converters' instead of 'extension tubes'...:o...I used the 20mm and the 36mm.
    Best to all,
    Nicki
