Thanks. Here are a couple that I just took. I might have altered it a little bit in photoshop.

Here are a few pictures I took this evening. I was playing around with the new macro lens I purchased.

You're making me jealous! I really need to get a proper macro lens.

Yep, that's it.

one thing with macro that you will find is that a good flash helps a lot because you really need to stop down quite a bit on really close stuff because your DOF is sooo shallow(f8-11). mainly bugs etc. these that you posted look really good for your first macros. the nice thing about macro photography is it opens up a whole new world and almost unlimited subjects.

I have a Canon 430EX II flash so hopefully that will do the job. I don't really know how to use it all that well yet though.
