I was out shooting today, and arrived home to find the macro extension tubes in the mail box, so got back in the car, and headed for the local gardens in town.
I used the canon t3i, with the canon 70-200mm f/4L USM lens with Meike Automatic macro set (3 rings). I used the 31mm tube for my first effort at using them.
Thank you for your comments, and I'm thrilled to finally see the butterflies are back.

I can smell the sunlight on your skin. Listen to them. Children of the night. What music they make!
Sandi, it seems your investment has paid off. This is an outstanding close up. Great color and clarity.

An excellent shot Sandi. The clarity couldn't be any better! It is a beautiful butterfly too.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
Excellent and the choice of shooting it on a flower really highlighted the flutterby.

I don't know much about the macro tubes but this makes me want to learn Tigz. As good as it gets.

LYTRO. The new light field photography. Refocus your shots AFTER you have taken them. Just click on the word LYTRO. See a VIDEO HERE.
The detail is outstanding Sandi. Such a fine shot.

Lovely colors in both the butterfly and the flowers. Outstanding capture with exceptionally sharp focus and clarity. The detail in the shot is phenomenal. Stunning work, Tigs.

What's the difference between a duck?
Excellent macro shot, Sandi. Composition is great with the use of black background patch and bright flowers. Despite extremely narrow DOF of equipment and settings your focus is perfect. Very well done my friend.

Buckeyes are very common around here, Sandi and you've done a great job capturing this on in all it's glory. Detail and DOF are spot on -

Delighted to get an AC vote on this fine photo:)

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . .

An absolutely magnificent display of beauty in simple nature, I just adore it! Perfect coloring and focus as well :)
