Nice photos, especially the bee.
Extension tubes can be terribly annoying, but at the same time
indispensible. Most of the ones available for the 4/3 mount are too long, but
the old OM 7mm one is just right for flower closeups. I carry one of those as
well as a +1 auxiliary (aka closeup) lens. Which one I use depends a lot on
the available light.
