QUICK PHOTO TIP - When shooting a close up of an insect, don't try to get the whole bug in focus. Focus on a critical area, usually the head, of the insect, then allow the rest of the subject to go soft. In the example above, I have focused in on the critical area. The rest of the insect is slightly soft. This subtly focuses (pun intended) the viewer's attention on the head area of the caterpillar. Larry Elkins - ELKINSPHOTOS
