Nothing wrong with a set of tubes. As you show here, they work pretty well.

Awesome little worm! Nice find.

Something I would have walked right past (such as this worm) a year ago, now I will spend a little quality time with it also!

Great job!

A tube is a spacer between the lens and camera. It lets the camera focus closer to the subject than without the tube...

Thank you for clearing that up, I'm guessing that's so much cheaper than buying a macro lens ? and how much cheaper roughly ?
