I've been able to coax sharper shots than that from the Vivitar 2X Macro coupled with primes (not macro lenses). It looks like you need a tad more DOF, and if you hand held, that could explain the softness. Tripods are really useful for this kind of thing.

I am a beginner in photog. Been shooting for more than a couple of years but have hardly got a good eye for composition and the techniques aren't any better. Recently, I tried macro for the first time. Here is my first PAW.

All kinds of comments welcome, especially those that will help me improve my compositions skills as well tell me more about how to handle a camera better.
