'ghetto' macro

It's a bit finicky, but you can take macro shots by removing your lens, reversing it, and holding it against the body of your camera. Not quite the same as owning a macro lens, but it works...mostly. They make reversing rings so that you can actually attach your lens to the camera that way; I was trying to hunt one down last night though I didn't (at the time) know what they were called and EvilMonkey suggested I look up 'ghetto macro'....*rolls eyes*

Here are a couple taken that way:
(the last one is a regular shot of my macro subjects :) )
