Just got a new macro lense for my Nikkon so I thought I would snap a few pics.

extremely nice, looks like the lense works great. Like the close ups with the textures and color.

Thats a damn nice macro lens cyberjester.  Your pictures are nice but I think you need to lower your ISO. Your pics are grainy. A tripod with a remote will keep the pictures nice and sharp when using a lower ISO.

I just bought the Nikor 60 mm lens but it actually ends up being a 90mm when mounted to a digital camera. I hear it also has a really nice "bokeh". I guess we'll see. Hopefully I will be able to get some nice close up pics like yours.

I was about to say the same thing.  Lowering your ISO to like 800 would be good.  I do know of some good photoshop plug-ins that do a great job of cleaning up 'noise' from pics taken using a high ISO.

I shoot my macros in 200 or 400 ISO

I just use a tripod and the timer to trigger the shutter...

Good luck
