Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Nice. Both of them.

That is epically awesome. I wonder if that was the original design or done by a twisted individual by design, or after it got damaged.

That was probably the most surprising shot from last night, and likely my favorite. I was using the Sears lens to do moonrise shots, and when I was getting ready to head out, I saw the clouds and decided to use the 14mm prime lens for a wider view. I love the overall feel of it.

45mm (so 90 equivilant) with 10mm extension for closer focus (I dont know what that does for magnification, nothing I suspect).
THese are flowers that are about 8 inches in diameter.

Opps. Extension tube does increase magnification (I think I knew that at one time, but forgot.)
////////////QUOTE
An extension tube increases lens magnification by an amount equal to the extension distance divided by the lens focal length. For example, adding a 25 mm extension tube to a 50 mm lens will give a magnification gain of 0.5X.

200mm lens with 1.0x magnification / 14mm extension tube[/FONT]
[FONT="]14mm / 200mm = 0.07x 1.0x + 0.07 = 1.07x total magnification[/FONT]

[FONT="]60mm lens with 1.0x magnification / 14mm extension tube[/FONT]
[FONT="]14mm / 60mm = 0.23x 1.0x + 0.23 = 1.23x total magnification[/FONT]

Love the closeups. Those bees are tough to get.
Thanks. Every time I moved to his side of the flowers, he went back to the other side. I chased him around the plants for several minutes...LOL..
Took these Tuesday, in one of the wife's flower beds...Setting sun.
