Petals in the third image are eye-catching - attractive pattern and pleasing color.

Ever since I tried them myself I've been recommending Raynox to anyone who wants to experiment with macro. My own rather extensive tests indicate that on a good-quality prime lens (not necessarily premium quality) and many zoom lenses, images taken with a Raynox are essentially indistinguishable from those taken with an excellent macro lens.

Below: one of the many wildflowers that have emerged from the mass of seeds I scattered last Fall. There were 25 varieties in the mix, over a million seeds, plus I purchased small packets of two species not in the mix that I like (common names: Joe Pye weed and butterfly weed, AKA orange milkweed)

Excellent details.
Regards, Toni.

Pixel Shifted. Detail is quite nice. Still not got lighting properly sorted. This is the same flower as photographed a couple nights ago, it's blooming a little more tonight.

Full res is worth a look, found here.
