Macro attempt 8800 & D250

I tried the macro thing many times this summer. Was never satisfied! I still go back and think how excited I was getting the macro lens at first. Not doing anything when it really is not acceptable. I mean, how can you go on and justify moving on to bigger and greater things if he can't handle what you have. So here are a couple more attempts.
