Do you mean shallower DOF?

nah, cause you missed the focus on the fly's head and abdomen...i'm not really into macro so i dunno how many more stops you'd need for that

More like this with a deeper DOF

Yes, I like that latter shot, The first is great too, but I have to agree with others that the head needs to in focus.
