			You don't even need a special lense: you can easily recreate the effect in Photoshop/GIMP, once you've taken your photo from a high angle as suggested above.  It's a two-step process: 
1. Increase colour saturation (colours in a macro-mode photo seem brighter than in a long-distance colour). 
2. Apply a blur filter so the upper and lower parts are blurred and the central area stays in focus (this fakes the limited depth of field of a macro-mode photo of a small model).
