Not to bad. You've got some DoF issues there.

Have you heard of 'focus stacking'?

Have you looked at TPF's Macro Photography forum?

I have heard of focus stacking, although I don't know how to do it.

I have heard of focus stacking, although I don't know how to do it.

Then it sounds like that's something you should learn!

Nice set, I like what you've done.

From what I know of focus stacking, you would need a stationary subject in a controlled environment.
That shot was taken hand held of a live crane fly outside

Nice set, I like what you've done.
