With the cropping ability that comes with 36 Mp and a great lens, I no longer have a need for a dedicated macro lens. This picture is taken without a tube. With a tube, it would have more resolution.

Roch Castle is a 12th-century castle, located near Haverfordwest, Wales.<br />
<br />
Built by Norman knight Adam de Rupe in the second half of the 12th century, probably on the site of an earlier wooden structure. Roche is the usual French word for rock, while rupestre signifies a plant growing among rocks. It is now an upmarket hotel. How times have changed!<br />
