Abstract Lavendar macro

I recently purchased a set of macro extension tubes for my camera. I’ve been interested in macro photography for a while but I’ve never had a macro lens so I thought I’d give it a try!

I shot all of these images on my 5D MKII with my 50mm 1.4 lens at its maximum aperture. They all have one incredibly sharp point which quickly fades out of focus because of the incredibly shallow depth of field, I find that this gives them quite an abstract feel.
