One at f/5.6, the other at f/13. Which do you prefer?

Canon 50D, 70-200 f/2.8, Canon 500D closeup lens, some ext. tubes (forget how many), tripod, 2-sec. delay.

Ditto. Why not post the url here. Saves time having to travel to see it/them.

Agreed, the f5.6 shot is nicer. With some shots extra dof just clutters the shot.. Do you have more in the range? I'd be interested to see the same shot at f8?

I must be the contrary one, I like the f13 version! I think I'd like the f5/6 one more if it had a bit more focus in the central, darker pink area.

I did f/2.8 out to f/11. I liked the 2.8 but several people I showed them to did not, so I deleted it. I think I have some others in the series.

I should put the pictures themselves here. Just being cheap!
