For the blog.

Macro shots:






The last one is horrible and the second to last could be better, I know.

 

Personally it looks like you missed the focus on pretty much all of them.

 

You need to get a CPOL to get rid of the glare off the wood top... Its blown out

 

The first one is a little out of focus, and I know the last two are... but the second and third? And what's a CPOL?

 

Circular polarizer. Would've helped a lot.

 

Can you use those on digital cameras like mine? I just have one of those little ones.

 

Nope, that's a DSLR only thing. They fit on the front of the lens. However, I would adjust your lighting. Amazing pictures can still come from those tiny cameras if you know how to use them right. Here are some of mine before I had my DSLR. Pay attention to the lighting:

 

How is this as far as lighting goes? I know it's a bit unfocused. http://kayotavenusflytraps.deviantart.com/art/Dionaea-Typical-4-96326634

 

Better. Boosting the saturation and contrast might've helped a bit.

 

how do you go about doing that?

 

In your post processing program there should be a way to do it. It will usually be in the form of a little meter.

 

I'll check that out tomorrow.
