On the tripod of course.

This lens and the teleconverter combination gives me a maximum of 1:1.5 macro capability. The lens itself can do 1:3 at 1.7m from the subject. It has quite good working distance and often I do not need a flash, which is very good.

This is a hydrangea with pale purplish blue colour.
A colour tone was manipulated using the split tone tool with LR to make this effect.
