Cone of Silence

More honing technique in the yard with my manual Olympus 90mm macro & the E-30. We've got 2 lodge pines that drop these like mad -

Took some experimenting to get the right depth of focus as these things are crazy tall in the macro world. Comments welcome.

Makes me feel like I'm falling... I like it!

Good focus and composition/angle on the cone.

Thanks you guys. I quite liked the spiral created by the process of opening. Soon it will be devoured by chickadees and nuthatches if not already.

Such an obvious subject, but your composition really works. Great detail and depth of field.

Thanks guys. I unearthed my manual ring flash recently an am working on the best way to manage it on my digital rig so things could get really interesting.
