I am thinking of doing this but I won't be able to do the whole 30 days. I leave for Washington DC (whoo-hoo!!!!) around November 6th, won't be back until the 13th or 14th. But I love macro photography so I will probably take part.
Hey elvis, just wondering if you have a cap in mind? I mean if like 100 people end up wanting to join, it will be way too tedious to commen on every pic..

have not thought about it. already more than I expected. lets see how the next day goes as far as interest
ME ME ME!! Pick me! I'll do it. I LOVE taking macro shots! It's about the only way I can come up with interesting shots, since I don't get out of my little corner of the world very often...

I think it's probably still do-able, even with lots of folks. I'm sure there will be plenty of comments to go around. There seemed to be in the self portrait project, anyway! (Which reminds me... must go upload and comment a bit... )
I do not, however, have any truly macro lenses nor any converter thingies. I may just watch this one and see what I can learn but not do.
Good luck to all of you! Today's the last day of the self-portrait challenge, and it was one of the most intense, creative periods I've survived ... err ... lived through ... err ... had the pleasure of experiencing. ;)
Seriously, you'll be amazed at how much you learn.
For those worried about commenting on every pic - don't! That is, don't worry. You probably won't have time to, regardless of how many people do it. Just comment on what you can.
I look forward to following along, and I might have an entry every once in a while.
I don't have a macro lens at the moment, but get great results with a 5x filter on my Canon 24-70 :)

If anyone thinks they "have to" have a macro lens, these were taken with the (as some call it) el-cheapo 18-55mm kit lens and a +3 close-up adaptor. Grasshopper pics were taken with the camera's built-in flash:
I wanna do it!! I totally gave up on the self portrait one, but I LOVE taking macro shots more than of myself. So i'll give it a go. I just ordered extension tubes, so hopefully I"ll get them quickly and be able to get better macro shots. RIght now, I'm using the x4 filter. NOt that great, but gets me a tad bit closer. WHOOOHOOO MACRO YO!
