Done with the Canon 50mm f1.4 lens and 12mm extension tube. I usually
use extension tubes with small lens openings for better DOF, but I
wanted to experiment with a wider setting here. The f2.2 and 1/8000
was the best I could do. The dreamy OOF is straight off the camera, I
did not soften the image in Photoshop.
