Looking Into A Pomegranate

The colors are bright and vivid. I find it hard to pick out much detail though. The lighting is a little too harsh I think. Nice idea though.

I have also experienced the hardships of macro and very shallow DOF. I have read that people will mount the camera on a trolley or something and then move the whole camera & lens closer and farther from the subject rather than try to use the focus on the lens. I have not tried that but I have done this...I just close down the lens to max out my DOF and use a tripod. It's not perfect but it does help.
