Macro shots attempted
Hey guys, I just wanted to share some macro pics I took. These were taken with Canon mp-e 65, definitely not an easy lens to use.
Let me know what you think

Two things... for me it doesn't work unless I click on them individually and loads the URL. But that might be my browser security tbh.

Second, how did you do that multi quote of users?

Thanks and great macro shots now that I can see them!

Wow! Great macro shots! I tried getting one of those clip-on macro lens for the phones and I just cannot compare them to your shots...

Humble request - could you try getting a macro shot of the laser etched coronet please? I would love to see it in all its glory! Here's my attempt at it with the said clip-on lens.

This lens is crazy. 5:1 is awesome. I've only had a 1:1 macro and that was fun. Would love to get my hands on one. Great shots

Great job. The use of B&W has the effect of making photos look more crisp.

Love the Blue Dial one.

Lovely shots- I love great macro details. I’m no photography buff but recently purchased a cheap clip on lens for my iPhone 6. The results are pretty good imo at least. Love to see more shots.
