    Yes Ray be glad to: camera was a 6d with 100mm f2.8L macro and a 20mm auto extension tube. I set ISO at 500,1/320 at f8. Image stabilization helped a lot at such a slow shutter speed for a macro shot and hand-held.

    Thanks, PP. For a hand-held, that is marvellous. I have a Tamron 90mm 2.8 Macro for my Pentax APS-C cameras but I find that I struggle to get macro images that I am happy with. Maybe I need to do some more study on the subject and then try a lot harder. I sure would like to be able to produce something like you have done.
