And are you discarding the out of focus ones? Look into focus stacking, you might be losing oportunities for it.

I wouldn't worry about it. No one complains when someone posts high-quality stuff at a size we can appreciate without squinting. If your photos weren't this good, I would have kept my mouth shut

Thanks, the raindrop got put on explore which is cool but I'm unsure of what it exactly is. I'm gonna try and get some more photos under heavier rain; just need to make rain sleeve work with my flash diffuser!

60mm macro + opteka extension tubes and I think I swapped it for the 100mm to get a shot of the lizard
