Please let me know what you think. I was having focusing issues with the lens (28mm manual macro)-- first time using it, but I kind of like the effect here. No editing.

Your DOF is a bit too shallow, try increasing your aperture for the next shot.

True EM - but at 1/50 and ISO 3200 there isn't much scope for stopping down any more. I would play with the cropping as there is too much dead space top and left. Yes, the shadow adds a nice touch.

I like the focus. I think the fact that we know what the object looks like helps make this composition work.
