Hi! Sorry if this is a repeat, but I didn't find a thread of this nature in my searching. I'll kick it off with two pictures from today.

Rebel XTi, Sigma 150mm f/2.8 @ 5.6 1/100 ISO 400, not quite 1:1, but almost, hand-held.

Rebel XTi, Sigma 150mm f/2.8 @ 2.8 1/500, ISO 100, hand-held 1:1
Don't be technical about macro meaning 1:1 or greater!

Canon 7D & EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro. Desaturated in Lightroom 2 and then increased iris saturation. Reduced noise too.
For some reason, there were no rose flowers to be found on my outdoor walk in Boston last week....

A shot back from the wildflower season in Anza Borrego (not sure if I ever posted this on TDP before.) This was when I first got into SLR photography and did not know much about controlling DOF. I borrowed the 100mm f/2.8 macro from a friend and just started shooting. Should have shot this at a narrower aperture.

John.
Here's one from me. Yellow food colouring dropped into blue coloured water. This is a collision of two drops. As the first hits the blue water and bounces back up the second drop collides with it. I did this all by hand (no sound/ IR trigger) so I got about 10 keepers out of about 360 shots this session. The moment is captured by triggering the flash only while the shutter is open in a darkened room. Takes a LOT of patience but it's pretty cool when you get a good one.

Not as creative as all those above but I was so excited to see flowers had bloomed in my gardent on Friday that I just had to get out the macro lens ...before it snowed Friday night and Saturday!

Found this little guy in the back yard yesterday afternoon. I wanted to get some perspective as to how small he was so I put him in my hand and held it up in the late afternoon light. Looks like a dinosaur on a mission through the desert I reckon!

Of course mine isn't real macro, since it is nowhere near 1:1, but I guess it just fits in here better than in best nature...
It was really hard to get this bee/wasp whatever it may be, in focus(FF really has great DOF [:D], which isn't always that easy to control)... I used AF and it was hunting a LOT, but then I couldn't use MF because it was flying to inaccurate...sigh, it gave me a hard time, but I like the end-result!

Hi Sheiky,
Thanks,
like your shot in flight, not easy to capture.

I have been really into macro recently. I am taking my tubes on the trip today to see if I can get a little closer to the butterfly.

I wouldn't call this one of my 'best' macro shots, but I found the subject interesting - seeing this little fungus (about 1 cm in diameter) immediately suggested a particular Florida landmark...
