Jorge, I think that a lot of people here would like to know your secret for such good pics ;D and would appreciate a lot if you tell us what equipment you are using and at what settings. I have definitively found your tip yesterday, for focal length extender, extremely helpful.

Well its no secret. Its just a lot of practice. I shoot with a Canon 1dMk2, Sigma 150mm 2.8 Macro. Some times I use a 2x tele converter for really good close-ups. Then I use photoshop to tweak my images. I use two different layers, Auto levels, brightness/contrast layer then reze for the web.

While none of that will make me a better photographer, I appreciate the pointers! Interesting that you use a 150 for most of your shooting. My macro is a 105.

Just practice will do that. I sometimes use it with the 2x converter when I want to get shots like these.
