    I went around the yard today to test out my new 50mm f1.8. I attached a 12mm extension tube to it and heres what I got!

    Haha, thanks Dylan. I was testing that 1.8 out, plus I didn't have my tripod so I wanted those fast shutter speeds.

    Nice shooting, slayer!

    The first thing that came to my mind when I saw that first one was an episode from the original Star Trek series.


    But I think you're way too young to know what I'm talking about....

    Thanks for sharing.
