    Sarah-
    What camera are you using? If you're using an SLR, a 100mm macro lens is usually your best bet. They have great image quality and allow you to get really close. But give us some more detail about your camera and what you're trying to shoot so we better understand how to direct you.

    Oh yeah - welcome to the site
