    Yesterday I had the chance to stop in the Deep Cut Orchid Show in Holmdel, NJ with my wife. ; We walked around for about 45 minutes and I tried out my Kenko tubes for the first time. ; Boy, that sure makes focusing very interesting. ; I should have had my tripod (first lesson learned about my tubes). ; Here are the first two, let me know what you think.

    Nice! ; I really like the symmetry of the first one. ; Orchids are a favorite of mine. ; I love rescuing[nb]Rescuing may not be the right term. ; So far I've killed 4 and saved 3[/nb] ones from the sale pile at Lowes and Home Depot

    Thanks Michael! ; By my math you are batting 0.429!

    Thanks Jeff and Tim. ; I plan on playing more with them, just have to play with the focus and I MUST use a tripod.

    Let's face it, orchids really are alien beings just waiting for their chance to take over the Earth. :)

    Excellent shots, John.
