Save some potato salad.
Get in early. ;-)

Albert Park
You were there too? ;-)
Great page of photos, and thanks for joining in Nicola. Switzerland via Christchurch?

Huuuuge thanks to Sophie, Jonathan and Petra for the amazing efforts today, and Minnie Street Studio and Jocelyn Carlin for the wonderful workshop space.
We will (probably) fly again!

Capture: Autumn lite, in reply to Hebe,
I’m looking at those; apparently filter-type macros are available too. Why choose the tubes?
Hi Hebe. The chap in the shop said tubes were a good way to get started, as it's much more straight forward than other options. It also allowed me to use my low cost 50mm 1.8 lens. At $190 for a set of three, the Phottix are much cheaper than the brand ones. I can get 'pretty damn close' to the subject with all three.
Anyway, I'm new to this, so pretending I know what I'm talking about would be foolish. Will work towards a post, and maybe encourage our resident macro-master to contribute. ;-)

Inspired by Jos, I got some low cost extension tubes for the 50mm Canon. I sense a whole new world opening up.

Who/what are the contents?
It's the Northern Club.
Although members are businessmen and women, they know that they are a part of a social club where briefcases are left closed and business talk is confined to private rooms.
Uh huh. Disclaimer: I was taken there for lunch once. It was nice enough, but I wouldn't rush back.

‘Real’ because it’s unreal, a verbal tool of US imperialism – the plant comes from Japan and adjacent east Asia, and isn’t ivy. But …
You reminded me of my fav’ ivy covered building at this time of year, if not the contents there in.

Moon’s up.
Few cobwebs on it.
Google earth on a back lit forest pansy leaf or two
I like those leaf veins.
