This is my first attempt a macro. Daffodils blooming in my front yard. It was quite windy out, took many shots to get one in focus.

Shot is with EF-S 55-250 IS with EF25 II extension tube.

Any comments welcome.

I'm interested in any comments you may have about the EF25 II as I'm thinking of purchasing one.

Good capture- some blown colour (ie overexposed) - yellow flowers are tricky from that point of view.
