    Very colorful Desirae :) Before I had my first lens with a macro switch on it.

    I created a extension tube from a body cap and a rear lens cap. You lose aperture control (if you set the aperture and hold the DoF button while removing the lens it will stay stopped down) but other then that it lets you get some great photos.

    Another great trick I like to do is attaching my lenses front to front, like putting a 28-90 on the front of a 70-300 gives awesome results.. better then 1:1 macro :P and since your leaving the lens attached all proper-like the host lens can be stopped down.

    Check my macro set theres a few with a penny that I did with the lens head to head trick.
    Heres a quick link to it.. 1968 Penny Beyond Macro
