Taken with my newly acquired "manual" extension tubes attached to my Tamron 90mm macro.
It's a very steep learning curve.......

Very small droplet on a dying petal.All three tubes attached.
Comments welcomed.

It is, very. As you've no doubt realised, it's the focusing that is a complete nightmare.

The tiniest, tiniest error will give you shots that are slightly out of focus, as with this one, which is nevertheless not at all bad as a first go.

You need very small apertures, to get the most DoF you can (which still won't be much), so you'll need lots of light, or very long exposures. Which is why Clarky uses that whacking great dual flash effort we've seen.

It's worth the effort though.
