Here where the heat lies
Pale blue in the hollows,
Where blue are the shadows
On the fronds of the cactus,
Where pale blue the gleaming
Of fir and cypress,
With the cones upon them
Amber or glowing
With virgin gold.

Thats really good. More like Micro than Macro! Are you using the extension tubes with your Macro Lens.

Hi David,
Yup, I used the 60mm with the Canon EF25 extension tube. In the following shot I used both the EF12 and EF25 extension tubes. Canon recommends that you don’t use both tubes together (a plus for Kenko) but I really couldn’t see why not. I did some digging and found this from Chuck Westfall (Canon USA):
“The main reason why Canon advises users not to stack extension tubes or other coupled lens accessories like extenders is the possibility that the camera’s shutter may not release. Each extra accessory increases the level of electrical resistance. But, you are welcome to try; many users have reported successful results using 2 or 3 coupled extension tubes.”
The full quote is here.
