You have captured very beautiful and wonderful pictures, For first picture you used 60mm lens. i am thinking to purchase 100mm lens. How much do you think, it is better for extreme macro pictures @brianhphotos

Thanks Cyrus.
I used the Olympus 60mm macro with 26mm of extension tubes and a 2x converter lens to shoot the first two images. This gives me roughly a 7 times magnification in full frame terms or put another way I can shoot something that is 5mm across that will fill the entire width of the image sensor. The 60mm macro lens, which I paid £300 a few years ago, on its own can capture something that is 17mm across.
I believe you use a smartphone (which will have a smaller sensor) so 100mm lens should give you lots of magnification.
