***What's In My Bag***

Another blog post about macro and detail images! Thought I would take the time today to tell you exactly how I created these images & the gear I used. If you follow my blog, you know that I am a fan of the Kenko Extension Tubes.    <<<< Click K.E.T for a link.

F-Stop 5.6

a longer shutter speed of 1/50 allows for more light
The two center beads are the main focus.

You can see that this image has more light than the first due to the shutter speed.
