Hi, shot this at SBWR. Does it work for you?

1st two shots DOF is too shallow. What aperture were you using?
The wings look ok...

F4.0 on Sony F707 using Close Up filter 4x on Program Mode.

I should make the aperture smaller right?

Yeah, f4 will get quite narrow dof for macros.
Try at least f8 and above... f5.6 can barely make it unless the subjects are all on the same plane.
