Taken using my Macro lashup. I purchased a 2x OM mount teleconverter from ebay to use with my telescope, but it fits in the OM 50mm and ebay tubes nicely. I can now use the 50mm lens at min focus distance instead of set at infinity. These are uncropped and show using the onboard flash. Both shot at f16

The rosehip in this is about 1 cm long.

I couldn't even see the little bug in the background, I was trying to capture the ant.

It's farming the aphids, two are in the v of the rose hip. :)
 
Thanks Alby, ant animal husbandry...
