Flower

Feature-4 Feb Word of The Day. While the word of the day was flower I got my money's worth and captured a number of them. I used my 36 mm Kenko extension tube to get in close to these pretty flowers and catch the bright orange stamens.
Gorgeous, Skip.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful comments! I must confess that while the stamens were orange I increased the saturation a little to make them stand out more. I really appreciate you taking the time to post comments on my photo!

These are really lovely....are those the buds that are round orange or are they the fruit?

OK, I'm lost! What is the extention tube???? This is fabulous!

@tksharpley - Extension tubes come in sets and are different lengths that can be used separately or all together that allows you to get closer to the subject for macro shots

@skipt07 hmmmm....thanks! got a link for purchase?
March 6th, 2013  
@tksharpley - I bought mine through Amazon.com. I bought the Kenko brand because they were higher rated. You can shop around for lower price. http://www.amazon.com/Kenko-Auto-Extension-Canon-Mount/dp/B000U8Y88M/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1363394725&sr=8-6&keywords=extension+tubes
