 I think I have a little camera shake going on there but at 1/250s??!! I say that because at f5.6 that blur should not appear on those white buds right behind the ladybug. Maybe it was just because I overexposed it a hair...

Oh well, ENJOY :)

I think you are your own toughest critic...I think blur was DoF and not shake, especially since the bug is quite sharp! DoF gets incredibly narrow that close to the subject, even at 5.6. Might be a good idea anyhow to use a tripod on macros just to keep your point of focus from moving if you make even the slightest of shifts before clicking.

Don't you hate that? It drives me crazy. I swear I never had that problem with film. Anyhow, I like your composition and those deep greens in the back are beautiful. I wonder if there is a way to achieve "whiter whites" in the plant without losing the vibrant green?

Achoo! 'scuse me. :)

A tiny blown on some spots, but a really good image overall. Great color and DoF.
