Day 33 - Thursday

Well, I'm cutting it close today - almost midnight!  But I'm still okay.

The weather has been so mild, it almost feels like spring (although I wouldn't be surprised if we get more snow before it's over).  So I got out my violets again, and this time went for the extension tubes to get in close for some macros.  I needed some extra light, because I really wanted to see the sparkle on the petals, so I got my little reading lamp ($7.95 at Walmart), and diffused it with a clear plastic cutting mat that I picked up at the dollar shop for a buck.  For a reflector I used a piece of shiny white paper.  Who says photography has to be expensive?  *giggle!*
