This year I want to learn more about photography and I'll be sharing some of it in this thread.

I'm very impressed by these lens extension tubes. The minimum focus distance on my lens is 40 cm but with these I can get much closer to the subject. This makes me see everything in the house in a new light!pic.twitter.com/wnt1U2JW1V

Cleaning up older photos, I still really like how this one turned out. I was trying to show how delicious the cake looked to me. What do you think?pic.twitter.com/7lVBzRNI7W

I don't know what kind of camera you're using, but I see a lot of out of focus and noise. Don't use manual focus for wildlife. Focus on the eye. Bare minimum shutter speed is 1/60s. Use shutter priority mode if available. If not, balance low ISO with aperture. Shoot RAW.

Thank you! Yeah, these were taken with kit lens which aren't good at their maximum focal lengths, but the birds would be too small otherwise. "Proper" lenses are way too expensive for me at the moment so I have to learn the range at which these are sharper.
