That is wild grass flower by some walk way in Cameron Highland.

One thing I felt, taking flowers of unknown type has more surprise outcome and fun compare to flowers from fest.

The coloured flower in desatured surrounding is very easy.

Firstly,duplicate 2 layers.
2nd,desaturate the upper layer. Using different methosd to desaturate could produce a nice black and white.
3rd,use eraser to remove the upper layer flower...biggrin.gif

How long u take to erase?
I notice u did a find erasing job... notworthy.gif

since this thread mostly posting macro shots.. i guess is appropriate to share my findings here..
is about using close up filter for macro photography...

from another forum.
QUOTE
Howard Owen quotes from the 6T manual...

``Both the No. 5T and the more powerful No. 6T close-up lenses are designed primarily for use with telephoto lenses ranging in focal length from 70mm to 210mm. (Although the accompanying lens to subject distant tables includes lenses of 28mm upto 300mm)...Nos. 5T and 6T are threaded on the front to accept filters, lens hoods, or a second close-up lens.''

There is also a quote relating to using both the 5T and 6T together :

``Nos 5T and 6T may be screwed together and used in combination to further extend the range of obtainable reproduction ratios, although this is not recommended for critical work.''
check out this web site.

I hope is useful for occasional macro photographer and does not want to spend 1XXX on a macro lens.
