Macro subjects needed.

I have just finished putting together my dream macro kit, much of which was chosen with the help of the good folk here on OcUK.

EOS 5D
MP-E65
MT-24EX
Manfrotto 475B (with geared column)
Manfrotto 405 geared head
Manfroto 454 sliding plate

But now it is dark and cold.

What good to take mcro pictures of here indoors, in the warm?

There was much more warmth and colour without the flash, but the flash picks out the thickness of the ink...
