Done for Tiny Tuesday TT308  "What makes you happy" Well there is some satisfaction when you decide on an image and it takes 45 minutes to finally get an image that you are happy with on a fairly common subject . The Olympus system is fantastic, but there is so much to learn and then to stay in the brain  for when you need it !!
This image is taken with the 60 mm macro lens and a 16 mm extension tube. I tried without flash to start with but then used the ST8 Olympus macro flash system. but again sorting out exactly what exposure, f stop, flash head positions etc took a while. Even then this is still a fairly big crop.  
Visited middle daughter today and found using the by-pass from Cherry to my side of Lincoln was a lot quicker :-)
