Yes my camera has the macro feature and yes i used it. I took these pics at like 1am, but i had my lights on as bright as they can get. Also i'm poor and can't afford one of those fancy white backdrop things(not sure what their called) u can buy, so I just taped white paper inside a box and put the stuff in there, that's why it shows seems, etc. Anyways thanks for the critiques and advice.
