One of those shots that just didn't quite make the cut to be chosen as the "shot of the day" for my 365 Project. Looking back at this really makes me consider getting a macro lens. I'd obviously love to get a new telephoto for wildlife and action shots, but honestly, I'd probably use the macro lens more. Reverse macro photography is fantastic, but I keep wondering just how much better my results might be if I did it the "right" way :P

yes on macro- i do close ups and had a supermacro mode on a cheaper camera years ago - the macro lenses are expensive but i think it opens truly an entire new world and is exciting - go for it!

Definitely looking into it. Guess I've just been surprised at the amount of successful shots I've been able to get with the reverse macro technique. Guessing the same amount of detail is achievable, but shooting with an actual macro lens would be way easier (setting your aperture, not having a set focusing distance, etc). That being said, I'm sure I'd end up having to purchase a real flash as well :P
