I got out into the garden first thing this morning before the rain started and had a play with the new Canon ring-flash. Managed these 3 flowers.

I can see I have a great deal to learn with this new kit - and I have only just appreciated (today) what Stephen Dalton did over 25 years ago when he combined macro photography with high-speed flash (see "Caught in Motion").
That guy was decades ahead of his time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
