First macro shots with Extension Tubes

[Singletracklovr]

Thursday I received a set of Kenko Extension Tubes in the mail.
Weather has been bad. 3 days of constant wind with gusts to 50 mph. So I am stuck with backyard shooting for now.

300mm f4 prime + 36mm
EXIF data attached to shot 2 if your interested in lens/camera settings.

Willow tree buds shot from 6 foot away.

Gorgeous. The 300mm f4 with extension tubes is my favorite for macros.

Those are stunning shots, thanks for posting them. I've finally gotten a prime macro although I've yet to try it out properly. After seeing these I hope to get out with it soon.

Very nice shots. Maybe too much border??? - TF

Thanks for the kind words folks,
I owe it all to Loupey's Extension tube sticky.

Extension Tubes - Full Disclosure

and the PP help I received in the software forum. I can't wait to get out and shot
some creepy crawly's

If you like to shoot closeups, tubes really are a great fun per $$$ spent.
I believe I paid $126 shipped. You get 3 different size tubes that can be used on any of your existing lenses.

And you can also stack tubes, so you have even more options than the three sizes
