Hey guys been practicing my macro some more and it is improving (or at least I think). Anyway I seem to have trouble getting bugs eyes in focus. Today for example I was trying to get some shots of a fly and they look "okay I guess" but the eyes are not completely in focus and it is starting to bug me haha. I tried taking about 20 photos before it got spooked and left.
Here is what I came up with. Maybe someone can give me some hints on how to focus better. I tried staying in one spot and manually adjusting focus, and I also tried putting it at 1:1 and moving the camera back and fourth but seem to still have trouble getting the eyes in focus completely.
In the last one I do realize I got someone's hand in the background. I was getting frustrated and thought maybe if I have someone hold the flower in place I could better focus. There was a little bit of a breeze but nothing too drastic.
Oh and all these photos are unedited un-cropped just straight from the camera
