A few weeks ago I bought £39 Groupon deal for a whole day of studio tuition.Here are a few of the results......

I'm really wanting to have a go at a bit of macro photography, but can't really afford a new lens at the moment after buying a Canon EF-S 18-105. (I know it's not a massively expensive or brilliant lens,but it's quite a lot for my standard of photography!) I know that you can buy extender tubes to increase the distance between the lens and the sensor but how effective would that be with my lens? I don't want to waste money only to find out that I should have bought a macro lens! So, cheap macro lens or extender tubes??

I've just bought a day long studio tuition from Groupon. £39 and it covers 1/2 a day shooting things such as popping balloons and advertising photography, then 1/2 a day shooting a model

I'm also new to DSLR's, although not entirely new to photography. This thread is providing me with plenty of inspiration! Cheers guys!
