Eye, originally uploaded by Bambi_72.

I got some el-cheapo Chinese extension tubes from e-bay this week, bargain price of £7.99. I thought I would see what they could do with my 300mm zoom set to macro mode. I wasn’t expecting a very good image as they have no electrical contacts for the camera to control the aperture of the lens.
I applied a saturation filter to the image to get the black & white effect, masking out the coloured part of the eye. I am fairly pleased with the result, considering I was a bit drunk when I took the photo, on the full size image you can really see the texture on the back of the eyeball thru the pupil.
