dinneenp Senior Member	Toothpick Flower Detail wow, great photo; it's nice to see flower shots from different than the standard angle. I'm thinking of getting a macro lens and was browsing through some macro shots. This photo would reinforce my opinion that I want one.

Noam Forum Member	Toothpick Flower Detail Thanks, glad you liked it! Note that this photo was taken with a simple DA 16-45mm lens - not a macro lens! In fact, I think that unless you are very serious about macro photography, you can do very well without one, by using good quality diopter filters. I got very good results and decent magnification with a Sony VCL-3358 +3.3 diopter married to my sigma DC 55-200mm (at 200mm), and a Raynox DCR-150 +4.8 diopter attached to my DA 70mm Limited.
