Chilies and tomatoes from our balcony and some more macros

My wife loves to grow stuff on the balcony. This year we got some beautiful, red tomatoes and chilies. The complete set of photos is located at: http://kansala.kuvat.fi/kuvat/Antti/2011-09-05+Chilis+and+macros/

I just received a wired extension tube that I had to test. The macro photos are shot with Nikkor 50/1.4 lens with a 36mm extension tube. As the sun was setting, I had a chance to test a 5-led head lamp as a light source attached to the lens hood. All photos from the mosquito shot onward use it.
