Making hay while the sun shines - or in this case, making dahlia images before the frost does them in. Made a 2nd one and put it in my Dahlia Gallery - http://www.pbase.com/ed_k/image/88198623
Experimenting with the Canon 500D close up lens attached to my Nikon 105mm 1:1 macro lens. The combo gives almost 50% greater than life size. Also tried the 500D combined with my 1.4x TC on the 105 mm which gives nearly two-times life size. This image was made with the 105 + 500D combo, but it's not 1.5x life size.
