Would something like this suffice as an adapter to make the macro close up lenses work?

Hi Melissa

Welcome to the forum. That step-up adaptor is exactly what you want.
The depth of field is very shallow with one of the close-up filters. Tripod is probably needed although you can get away with handolding when there is plenty of light ( like in Texas;-)).

Ed,

Thank you. I went ahead and ordered the adapter =] I'm excited for it to arrive so I can see what all of these things do! I'll have to think about a tripod next it seems like.

I posted one picture in my introductory post in the new members section if you're interested in taking a look at it =]
