Went camping a few weekends ago. There were a bunch of interesting insects and spiders around so I decided to play with my raynox 250 macro lens. I find that it's pretty challenging to use since the DOF at full zoom is only 1-2mm (as you can see you generally can't even get an entire bug into focus) so you have to have steady hands and a lot of patience. But I think the results are pretty cool when you do nail a shot.

Really great resolution!
You do know what resolution means? B/c in these pics you have no way of telling.

To the OP, were you using a flash setup or is that natural sunlight? Nice job,it is so hard to take macro pics well, even the smallest hand shake will cause motion blur.:)
