: I've got a tripod (not the best, I'll admit, it's only a Slik) but mounting
: the camera on the tube beneath it isn't all that useful, as then everything
: is upside down. Not to mention that changing positions much at all means
: moving the whole blasted assembly around.
:
: Anybody have a more creative solution for getting down close to the ground
: (preferably with the camera body right side up)?


What you really need is a tripod that can have its legs spread out wide to give
a real low camera position, a focusing rail and focusing stage, a
varimagnifinder so that you don't have to lay in the mud, and the 65-116 tube. A
macro flash is highly recommended.
