    Nice shots, Gary. I like how you were able to capture the rainbow colors on the wings of the midge.

    I'm taking notes.......... these were done with the 100mm and 68mm of extension tubes?

    That's right. I frequently use extension tubes with my 100mm lense.

    Thanks all for the comments.
