... amazing arrays of photos you got here.
you've got eyes for details and very alert too.
Expecially that girl photo, who has an anchor tattoo behind her ear
Don't forget that with such a small DOF with the macro lens, unless your subject is all on the same plane ie same distance from camera, you will get some areas not in focus. Maybe the flower was not dead square on to the camera? Also...long exposure means ANY air movement may cause some out of focus areas with delicate objects, smoke etc.
Also....did you turn IS/VR off?
But looking at the pic I'd say not square on to the camera![]()
Hey mate it looks pretty good, keep trying and if you are still having issues when you visit I will help you out.November 28th
i am beginning to think I am either hopeless with this macro lens or there is something wrong with it.
I just cannot get the dof right.
Very disappointed in this photo of a drop of water on a leaf with a bug caught in it.
I took others but just not feeling up to posting them
