Recently I picked up some extension tubes and am rediscovering macro....sure is fun, but challenging. All shots natural light, three tubes stacked, handheld.

Today I snapped this leafhopper in the yard, colorful fellow....

All three are cool shots. Love the colors. Don't know what you have, but a flash unit... not a pop-up... will add a lot to your shots. Especially important using tubes. Looking forward to more :D
