figured it (thanks grisabella)

The performance of the filters looks really good. Which are they. There is a common cheap set on eBay they I keep pondering on but don't trust tp much as there cheap.

Photo wise the spider looks awkward to me. It needed more of the bug in focus I think. Good job though.

EDIT: Removed as shown how to do above.

neewer close-up filter set [URL]http://www.amazon.co.uk/58MM-Macro-Close-Up-Lens-Canon/dp/B004GCVWXM/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1341754743&sr=8-2[/URL] this is the set i got - cost me £8.60, and worth every penny it seems.

i agree the spider one is a bit awkward - he wouldn't move into the right position (lol) so i just grabbed the shot before the rain came in!

Just brought. Thank you!

You're welcome! Erm...hope you checked thread size for the filters-I nearly bought the wrong size(!).

Glad you have figured it out, loving the pictures and the quality .its a shame we couldnt see the spider more.

I have too invested in a simerler set (ebay cheap one same price though as yours) should get mine tomorrow so i should be able to show a few for quality.

Yes 58mm for the lens I plan to use them with.

Ah, good! ;)

Really nice shots!
