Thanks as you can probably tell I am having fun with my new Macro lens ;)

Yes, and I want one! I’m stuck with the capabilities of my iPhone for now.

Iphones do pretty great these days, but you can do more with a camera of course, but they can get expensive when you start adding lenses,

Yup. It’s why I’ve procrastinated for so long! 😁

Not a bad idea, I have two cameras and a selection of lenses, I never work out how much I have spent on them as it would scare me lOL

@jayna, buy an old out-dated camera (like, canon 400-500d) and an artsy 50mm lens (1.8 is comically cheap, outstanding price/quality, 1.4 is a bit less cheap but anyway!) then you momentarily go OUT of your deadend. I guarantee that, hehe. you really should not feel scared. just ddont buy all new and all at once. 50-mm lens are universal, it has no zoom and no wide angle -- but you have iphone for that! this combination suggest you an option for doing crystal clear shots, and you be able to play with all this GRIP / blurred background / artsy style of the stuff. cheerio!
ps.
I love macro too -- the last year I've obtained two lenses and started playing with them... pics will follow...
