Fly digging in pollen

[rya794]

Im just starting out in macro photography and i would really appreciate it if some of you more experienced photographers would let me now what you think of this image and maybe give me some advice improving my macro shots.

Even if you dont reply thank you very much for taking the time to view my image.

This image was taken on 300d with a quantarty 50mm macro and a 550ex speedlite. Shutter speed:200, Ap Value:13, ISO:100.

Thank you both very much for the suggestions about where to store my pictures they were both exactly what i was looking for.

The fly is cool though.

I couldn't get into your site, but try Photobucket.com for free hosting.

Try fotopic.com

I have fotopic & there are problems - pics don't display correctly in this forum, they were down for a week recently, & the user interface is less than intuitive. That's why I went to PhotoBucket & no problems since.

some advice improving my macro shots.

Looks like a good start to me. Some of the "L" guys will tell you that everything needs to be sharp, but I tend to like a little blur at the edges.
In this image, since the fly is a point of interest, it needs to be sharper, or at least, to appear sharper. (Stopping down another f-stop would probably have done it.) For now, first try upping the contrast in Levels before you sharpen. See what you think then.
