Want critique Face to face with my beaty , Ephemera vulgata

I prepare a tool to clamp the leafs if it's to windy. Maybe you can try to build something similar nataliaflejszar&Photo?

It's made of a steel bar and some clamps from a soldering station (e.g. Link). You can also use a plastic stick or something like that.

I can recommend increasing the DOF using smaller diaphragms (f/11, maybe f/16 maximum) being careful to avoid the diffraction caused by very small apertures (this depended on your lens). I see the light was correctly diffused (no harsh lights), and yes, it's very difficult to photograph some active insects. If you have the opportunity again, try to take pictures from the side, and ALWAYS focus the eyes (remember it's a portrait).
