I'd like to share a little something about taking a macro with a celphone. Please, understand that what i will say here should be taken as advise for a make shift, non-ideal situation, &/or for people that want to capture an image of the tiny world but cannot afford or have no access to conventional equipment. Because, of course there is no comparison to using a true camera with nice lenses to the following sugestion if using a cell phone; however, i have found myself in the field without 'real' camera gear. When this is the case, and i see something small i want to document, i use my galaxy active phone and macro lense attachment to take a "burst shot". The tiny world is available even if nice equipment is not.
At least in the past two tries for me, the download link for this instructable is malfunctioning. This should not be a 16kb download, except it is - with a Title and a small image. Sad.

Give it a try again - I believe the pdf download file just needed to re-sync for some reason. It appears to contain the full instructable now.
