I was playing around with the extension tubes while I was waiting for the girls to get ready to head out. This was a test shot of the evergreens in front. I was going to shoot something for the macro shot but didn't get anything.

I suck at borders and would love any comments (good or bad) on how this one works.

Love the photo. The drop shadow is nice too. The frame itself is a bit over powering

Beautiful. Not crazy about the frame but I love the soft blue and the narrow DOF. ;~)

The shot is lovely! Really sweet DOF and complimenting bokeh. The pale blue adds a wintry feel - and this would have done fine in macro, I figure. The frame? Not all that keen on it. For me the gray takes away from that lovely blue in the shot.

Great shot, Ken. I think the frame detracts from the photo. I also notice there's a slightly bevelled look to the photo edges, which dirties the image a bit.

Wonderful image - not fond of the frame.

I like the frame...the drop shadow looks really good. I might have gone with a blue shade for the very back but this one is good too. Great processing idea! :)
