I've got bug pics that I think are very nice. However, the person I'm working with thinks they should be much, much sharper and is complaining bitterly about them. I'd like to share the pics here, but for now the best I can do is link you to a Facebook album because I'm getting an "undefined" error when I attempt to upload them here. So, for those of you who have a Facebook account, this album is publicly viewable:

All of these photos were taken with my Nikon D300s and AF Micro-Nikkor 200mm f/4D IF-ED lens. Also used is a ring flash system with two Nikon SB-R200 flashes. The flash system is set to close-up mode, and the flash power varies due to the endless variables involved between substrate, insect coloration, and distance to subject. Any thoughts/ideas on how I might improve image quality would be appreciated. F-stops range from 14 to 20, though I try to stay at 16 or 18 as much as possible. Shutter speed is fixed at 250 because of the flash, but though I'm holding the camera by hand, I've got strong arms and I can keep it pretty steady. ISO is fixed at 200 for all shots. The Photo Settings (a Nikon particular) is set to Standard.
Look forward to any feedback.
