What John said!
Some of those lichen shots are quite nice.
Will be quite a number of months before I can shoot any of those again up
here... :-)

Larry, I bet you will get much sharper images if you ditch the macro
teleconverter. I tried my copy of that thing and it degrades the image
quality substantially, especially at such high magnification.
That aside, if you find yourself at a camera shop or on Amazon, get
yourself a reversing ring. Throw a wide lens on there and you'll be
all set. Totally worth it.

It turns out that I don't have a lens reversal ring after all. The best
I could do for crazy macro was basically a bunch of extension tubes, plus
my vivitar macro 2x teleconverter, and nuking the subject with a big
strobe:

I was able to get a ruler shot down to about 3mm, but it isn't terribly
sharp:
