Given that one was saying I suck and one was saying my shot was pretty cool, I think the guy claiming they were the same person was making a joke.

Hehe. There's not a thing called "supermacro" really. It's usually refered to just as "macro" until 15-20:1 lifesize magnifications, where it starts to go to the microscopic category. :)

18-55 reversed produces ok results. It's not like i started with the MP-E. I've only had it for a couple of months. I probably would have stopped macro shooting after a couple of weeks if i had bought the MP-E first. It's very hard to use compared to regular macro's. :)

Pic not taken with the MP-E, but the 100mm f/2.8 Macro.
