I was going to test focus-bracketing, but then I remembered that there was a lot of extra pot-processing. So instead I just made the fstop number bigger (aperture smaller). Tomorrow I will probably add my flash for a flash for a full fledged macro-setup and turn the fstop to 11 …
This was taken back at the start of the month when I was walking around the neighbourhood looking for flowers.
I haven't had a lot of time to get out and take macro photos, and the times that I have I am torn about taking the 100mm which is my …

So I'm working with the 60D that fits my hand slightly better, and without the adapter the camera isn't as front heavy …
