06~2009~IMG_6592 ... bloomer Photochallenge.org's 2009 daily challenge #173, late. This is a yet to open daisey bloom, in our garden. Normally 3 foot high gems are in full effect by now, but due to the cool wet spring we have had here in the North east they are a few weeks.... late. This is another 1:1 macro image. I bought a set of extention tubes about a week ago with some birthday money, and have been getting used to them this week. I used the 16mm and the 12mm with my 50mm f/1.8 at a focal distance of about 2" to create this image. The bloom is the same size as sensor in my Canon XSi. (hence 1:1)
