Don't you just love these things? Did you hand-hold this? If you had a tripod with you, it would have probably helped to increase the f-stop so as to get more of the subject in focus. Lots of times a shallow DOF can be good in macro, but I don't think it helps you here. If you know you are shooting for DPC and you don't have a tripod a trick is to pull back and then crop later. The further you pull back, the wider the DOF becomes while keeping the same shutter speed.
Jan really likes this one..I told her how its your highest rated photo...
She got a card from Barb and was reading to me...and she said look, the lighthouse..and I was like "wait..Thats Janine's"....she looks on the back and "yeah..there's her name"..I was laughing because I had recognized it..."I'm good!" lol
A hardy congrats on this! Well done. I haven't been around and just now was poking through the past month or so challenges and happened upon your great image. SOOOOOO close to a ribbon!
I didn't even realize your nailed this HM until I saw your mention of it on Facebook! Congrats! I didn't vote on or enter this challenge, so wasn't paying attention to it.
