If you can't beat 'em... This shot was taken with the Rebel XTi, 100mm f/2.8 macro and the 420ex. Tripod mounted, 1/1600th of a second @ f/10, ISO 400. The flash was bounced off a white board next to the water. The red color comes from the bowl the water was in. Post processing was pretty minimal. I lowered the white balance a bit to bring out the blue tones, then ran it through noise ninja and sharpened it in CS2. Hope you enjoy it, I had a good time experimenting with this set...

What else to do on a rainy day. Taken with a Canon 30D and Canon 100mm f2.8 Macro. 1/8000 sec @ f/18 ISO 100 Lighting 2 x Canon 580EX II at full power.

From a series of macro shots taken during a trip along the Oregon coast.
