SteemitPhotoChallenge Entry -- Macro Portraits

Here are a couple portraits I took with a makeshift macro lens.  I do not have a real macro lens so I flipped my 50mm lens around (backwards) and manually held the aperture arm with my finger and pressed the front of the lens hard against the camera body to get the magnification and lighting effects.  I hope you enjoy them!
