I got some extension tubes today. (Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£22.49 for three tubes. Reduced from Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£75) So now I can take faux macro shots without an expensive macro lens.

First is the TV.

Second is a liquorice allsort, about 3/4" squared. Lots of imperfections are shown up so it doesn't look so nice.

Some pictures of flowers that my grandmother is growing inside our house. (I'm very surprised these things will bloom in the dead of winter.) (She is also growing some orchids, a picture of which can be found 2 posts above.)

It's outdated. The parking lot behind the chemical engineering building is no longer there. It has been replaced by an expansion to the building. And it looks like there is still a road leading up to the fountain, which is now closed off and in the process of becoming a park-like area.

And yeah, it's Purdy. ;-)
