Here is the one I used. I bought it because it would work with my case and it was cheap.

They're good for the base image but you have to crop them down for dramatic effect. Fun to play with.

By "they" I mean the macro lense for the iPhone. Amazing what these phones can do.

Any of the clip-on macro lenses for the iPhone will work better if you use a better camera App than the free one Apple provides.

Look for an App that allows you manual control of aperture setting and then auto adjust shutter speed. That way the depth of field in the finished picture will bring more of the subject matter into focus.

Mr. OP, thank you for the great link. Just ordered the macro lens you linked, will show some handiwork once I get decent enough to actually post.

Happy Holidays !!!
