    extremely nice, looks like the lense works great. Like the close ups with the textures and color.

    So what camera model and lens are you using? Isn't it mandatory to include that info /w your shots? /site/DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/_default/emoticons/wink.gif

    Thats a damn nice macro lens cyberjester.  Your pictures are nice but I think you need to lower your ISO. Your pics are grainy. A tripod with a remote will keep the pictures nice and sharp when using a lower ISO.
    I just bought the Nikor 60 mm lens but it actually ends up being a 90mm when mounted to a digital camera. I hear it also has a really nice "bokeh". I guess we'll see. Hopefully I will be able to get some nice close up pics like yours.

    I was about to say the same thing.  Lowering your ISO to like 800 would be good.  I do know of some good photoshop plug-ins that do a great job of cleaning up 'noise' from pics taken using a high ISO.

    I shoot my macros in 200 or 400 ISO

    I just use a tripod and the timer to trigger the shutter...

    Good luck
