Alright, so this is kind of disappointing. The top two are using my uber macro lens, but it was impossible to focus. In the very top one, you can see a nice reflection of the lens and the check book I had supporting it though, so it was kind of cool. The second one is the best I got with the closeup lens. Still not in focus. The third is with my normal 300 mm zoom, from the minimum focusing distance. It was mostly just a quick and dirty for comparison, I could have moved my light around a bit (or gotten some softer illumination) and gotten rid of some of the shadows and highlights.
