Butterflys

Now I've found the time to set up this feature, I'll probably use it to gether any feedback I can (good or Bad).

I recently visited a local butterfly farm and enclose the following shots

These little critters are tough to take close ups of. Most of your images suffer from insufficient depth of field (DOF). Butterfly 1, for example, has the head out of focus, but the leaf surface behind the body in sharp focus.

I would suggest that you try forcing the camera to set a smaller aperture setting (increasing DOF) and see if this does not deliver better results.
