Since today is July 4th, and all kinds of celebrations are going on this weekend, I thought this reminded me a firework bursting out. :)

To my friends here in the states Happy Fourth Of July. To everyone else I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Taken with the 100mm and 13mm extension tube. I appreciate the comments, and critique.

Not sure if the extension tube made any difference, but it was something new to try anyway. :) It's fun to learn, and try different things, but I will be removing the tube for now anyway.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

Not sure of the size of this flower but you did a fine job creating this image. The hairs on this flower are starting to show up. Remember the rule of thirds when composing and avoid a dead center subject if possible. Well done.

Sure does look like a burst of fireworks. I would love to see a whole mess of them in the night sky. Beautiful work, Sandi. Since I can't afford that 100mm Macro lens right now, I am going to get a set of extension tubes. Have a safe 4th.

It does indeed look a fireworks burst Sandi but I'm unfamiliar with that flower - nice work with the new set up.

Outstanding shot and makes me think of one of the fireworks exploding showing us delicate designs and colours, Fabulous detail and clarity. Gorgeous colours and looks like it's coming right out of the screen at me.

Good capture, Sandi. The petals will unfurl like the sail on a ship and be beautiful in another dimension.
