Description

iso 100, 180mm (Canon 180L macro with ef25 ext tube), manual (f/8, 1/100 sec) mode, tripod, Canon 580exII Speedlite with stofen omni-bounce handheld to left, cropped in pse9...... This morning I put the plant I shot in the sun out in the rain and waited... I got carried away and took about 100 pics of this plant...forgot my jacket and nearly froze in the garage..it was fun, I learned... flash off camera is good for macro... :-)

Hey, there's no rule against it -- so enter the original, too. It's a new month, you know, and that ought to count for something.
This is my favorite of your November entries, Bob, but the tiger is a close second.
Good luck #9079011

Flash off camera is great for macro and many other ways, as well.

Wonderful composition, colors, tonality and angle, Bob. This is a beauty.
