Little World [Details & Macro]
Uploaded: November 18, 2010 11:22:02
iso 100, 180mm (Canon 180L macro with ef25 ext tube), manual (f/8, 1/100 sec) mode, tripod, Canon 580exII Speedlite with stofen omni-bounce handheld to left, cropped in pse9...... This morning I put the plant I shot in the sun out in the rain and waited... I got carried away and took about 100 pics of this plant...forgot my jacket and nearly froze in the garage..it was fun, I learned... flash off camera is good for macro... :-)
