WOW! That is EXCELLENT!
I must get me a macro lens, or get my little P&S out of retirement...

That is a great macro!
That decides it. I can't afford a macro lens at this point (ha, no pun intended), but I think I'm going to get a reversing ring so I can have a go at it. I've still got a lot of winter ahead, and I need to have something to distract me from the housework and laundry that I'm not doing.
