Thanks for viewing. I use Macro Lens+ET+Raynox and some of the photos are cropped.
 

Great photos!
I am currently learning to shoot macro.
Would love to see some photos of your equipment setup.
Hope you don't mind.
Thank you.
 

this is my humble setup-
Nikon Boby whit SB400 flash and DIY diffusers
