I added a 1.7 teleconverter to the mix to take these:

Those pictures are amazing!!!!! I've been trying to get a macro lens for my camera after the photo class you gave at the last meeting.

Thanks, Brian. John doesn't particularly care for it. He thinks it detracts from the image itself. Hmmm.

Maybe you could try making that edge 30%, or so, smaller. It does pull the eye a bit and makes it a little bit dizzy. Also, intensifiing the broder might help a bit. Something to this effect (border should be done a bit better, but this is just for general idea) if you don't mind me messing with your pics :)
 
Those are nice detailed pics. Did you use an Ogles Mesoscope attached to the camera?

If you haven't seen what this is check the link! Awesome.
I would like to see members of NJ/RC posting pictures off this thing.

He must have been having an off day. Tell him to have a couple Yuenglings and look again!

Advice taken . . . it looks great now!

It is actually a > 1:1 macro of the oxy from last month's POTM. The closer perspective shows a lot more of the green under the red that you don't see from a full shot.
