Hi
I took these with my iphone and a homemade macro lens.
The first 3 pics are straight from the phone, the last one is a crop of the third one.

All you need to do is destroy an old cd or dvd drive, and in there you will find a small lens used for the laser.
It's about the exact size as iphone camera 'hole'.
I used some blu tack around the edge of the lens to hold it in position.
Then you just need to get your iphone into focus lock (hold your finger on the screen for a second), or it wont be able to focus properly up so close.

Post some pics if you try it :)
