Still learning to use my new Sigma 180 macro, but already getting pretty good results.

I bumped the ISO up to keep a reasonably fast shutter and minimize the effects of my hands shaking from holding this beast up. I know I'd do better with a tripod, but it's just not as convenient.

Excellent stuff Jeffrey! I don't think would want to get any closer to that little nasty guy than you have done here. Fantastic details

I like. Extremely sharp treatment of the hairs. Looks like you're going aperture priority and bumping up ISO. Doing these handheld right?
