      Well the grasshopper and the hornet have a smaller depth of focus because they were shot with a micro lens (used for close ups). They way to do it with a normal lens though, you have to have your f-stop at the lowest number it can go to (f-number) You can put your camera in Aperture priority mode and manually adjust it, while the camera will choose the right shutter speed for you. I shoot in Manual, so I control both the aperture and the shutter speed. But you have to have the f-stop as low as it can go and when you zoom in on things, that will help decrease the depth of focus. So, you never really want to shoot anything all the way zoomed out, except for landscapes and that kind of thing, of course.

          Beautiful pics! I hear you on the D7000 Right now I'm using my film N75 and would give my upper-left nut to get my hands on a FX-format Nikon DSLR.

          What lens/flash gear are you using?

            Keep the nut and just save up for a while

            I don't have a flash yet. I was tempted to buy one, but decided to save up for the D700 instead. The only lens i have that is MINE is the kit lens 18-55mm VR. But lucky for me I have some connections and a friend is letting me borrow some of his top dollar Nikon lenses at the moment that include the 70-200mm, 14-24mm, 105mm micro, and 24-70mm - all f2.8, which is why they are nearly all $2000 lenses O_o

                        Most of them are just out at my house, but the exotic animals are all from the zoo. But that Great Horned Owl wasn't at the zoo actually. We found it at work and lucky for me I had my camera on me. The poor thing was sick and injured though so it wasn't trying to escape which enabled me to get the close ups of it!

                            Haha yeah, zoo shots can be hard cause of all the obstacles you have to shoot around/through. I've always messed with bugs since i was a little kid, so getting up close with them is no biggie

                              I think you should give us major beginners a "how-to" on how to take pictures. My pictures suck and just knowing what the different settings mean would definitely, without a doubt, help me out sooooo much.
