Nice thread jprime84, and great shots evryone. Just a few humble close view crops, no macro. Hope they're good enough to play.
By the way, maybe some of you know about it, but I recently discovered something called a 'reversal ring', which allows you to reverse the lens on your camera, and take macro like shots.(cheap). Some limitations, but the examples I saw look impressive. Googling 'reverse lens' will find you a demo.
