Been thinking about getting a dedicated macro lens for some time now... The closest thing I have is this 28-105mm Nikon, which has a 1:2 macro capability from the 50-105 range. It actually works very well, and it allows me to practice and see if I want to spend the big bucks to get a true macro lens.
Most of these pictures are shot at f16, B+W NL2/Close up filter, and shoe mount sb-25 at 1/2 power.
