Very nice! It almost seems to be alive, like a creature.

Nice. Have you tried extension tubes to get the MFD down?

Thanks guys.

danski0224, you know that's the one thing I don't like about the 400 compared to my 300 - MFD. And to make matters worse, the longer the FL the less effective are the tubes for close ups. However, if I think I'm going to do more of this kind of thing with the lens that's the only solution cause 11' is not good (in this case the subject was behind a large puddle so 300 wouldn't have helped me). I wish I could persuade Canon to incorporate close up like the 24-70 on their hand-held big whites.

Thanks All. Some great pics in here!

I use a 25mm tube all the time, it works great. 400mm just a few feet away doesn't really need "magnification" because many flowers will nearly fill the frame.

Agree, but it's not always flowers. It may be bugs (like flittering butterflies) or other oddities and interspersed so that means in any moment there is a decision to make to add it or not. Not an overly big deal though.
