Thank You everyone! I shot them with a Canon 7D using the Canon 100mm 2.8 USM non IS handheld

I'm on the fence about purchasing the "IS" version. Is it really worth the price difference.

Do these appear sharp enough?

Looking forward to your thoughts.

If You click my Flickr link, I have more from that set.

Also Which might look best as a 20x30?

I don't have the IS version of the 100mm and have been happy with mine. I am relatively new to taking pics of the macro world (been enjoying pics though for years) so maybe I will later realize what a benefit the IS would be but right now the non-IS is fine. Some of the more experienced people on this forum can tell you their experience.
