Holy Cow those are amazing! Those buggies look cute enough to snuggle, well maybe not quite, but I love how you were able to capture all that fuzz.

where did you get your lens at?

 

[hsmoscout]

where did you get your lens at?

B&H Photo (B&H Photo Video | Digital Cameras, Camcorders), it has the best prices on the net other than Amazon.
Here a link to that lens so you can bookmark it
Canon | 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro Autofocus Lens | 4657A006 | B&H

Also if you're parents will be buying this as an X-mas gift, have them keep on the lookout for this lens used. It will probably save you $50. Yeah, you don't save much as camera gear holds it's value really well, but on the bright side if you ever want to sell it you will get almost all of your money back.

Thank you for the site, AJ!
