201/366

It has been a while since I've posted a true macro shot, so tonight I decided to break out the full set of extension tubes and add to my collection of macro shots of food with this shot of a stick of cinnamon.

Strobist: 430 EX camera left and slightly above the plane of the lens, about 6 inches away, at 1/32 power, firing through the built-in diffuser. A silver metal sheet pan as a reflector camera right for a bit of fill.


Taken Jul 19, 2012 in Somerville, Massachusetts, United States
¹⁄₁₂₅ sec at f/11, ISO100.
Lens: EF50mm f/1.4 USM @ 50 mm, with 54 mm of extension tubes.
