with Robbie.Macro is all about depth of field.
Your images are nice (color, etc.) but lack the necessarily sharpness
around the areas most important.
Also .... watch your backgrounds and K I S S
Keep working with it

Thank you for the input. From the reviews, seems I am on the right track. I did enjoy making these shots very much. As every one knows, it's winter, & everything is dead or dormant outside. I promised my family I would make lasagna last night. I saw these flowers at the grocery store & they were yelling at me to photograph them.
Thanks again for the input. I will do my best to see it wasn't wasted on me. Keep an eye out for my next shots & hopefully they will be improved. G

Can you share what macro lens you are using?
