Here's a blog post I made for this: Macro By Reverse.
Cheers!
Where do you find this reverse ring adapter?
Yesterday I got my 100L, and today I went for a long hike to try it out.
So here are two of my first, and therefore by definition: best macro shots ;-)
Both hand-held (my new tripod hasn't arrived yet), 5D2, ISO 800, f/11, and the feather just happened to be attached to the twig, I wonder who lost it...

Btw, looking at some of the other pictures: I'll be trying out focus-stacking soon...
And one question: Today I only saw one beetle, and he scampered off before I could try out whether a polariser would make the specular reflections less harsh, any experience with that?
Nice shots Colin, I especially like the bee shot. How are you liking the 100L

Btw, I find the focus-limit switch unintuitive, would have expected a different order of the switch positions with "everything" in the middle.
If it performs well enough for portraits I can sit out however long it takes for a 135L f/2 IS to arrive ;-) But I can already say that there won't be any buyers remorse regarding the 100L... Even though it's a bit too short to act as my outdoor-hiking-do-everything, but I knew that already because even my 70-200 is often too short for how I'm currently shooting landscapes. 100L + 300L would be perfect for me (or 100L + 100-400), but that'll have to wait a bit.

This is one of the first macro shots I ever did:
