I thought I would share some shots I took with my new macro lens, visit my thread here for a few more.

These are baby cherry shrimp. None more than half an inch long. Check out the "leaves" on the java moss:






A little guy cruisin' the glass, which is pretty dirty.

This lens only does half size magnification, so it's a little handicapped. The lens is really sharp though, so the pics can be cropped down a fair bit. The price was right though, probably $150 less than the cheapest "true macro". The closest you can get to a subject is about a foot with this lens.
