First non-flower macro. D3100 with Nikkor 40mm micro, ring light. I am learning so any C&Cs welcome.

I am not sure what to make of your photo. I don't see any clear area of interest and if you hadn't told us what it is I think none of us would have any idea. Also there is no size comparison in the photo. In my opinion you need something of a known size to give a representation of the size of your fish spine, a fork, a whole fish, something. Also there is either nothing in clear focus I have moved from area to area and don't see anything that stands out regarding focus. I am not saying it isn't in focus but only that no one point stands out as being in sharp focus. On a positive note I do like the exposure but would have chosen a different background.
Sorry if I tend to sound negative. That wasn't my motive in giving you feedback. Perhaps others will have more positive comments.

Dennis, thank you for your comments. You are right, I should have included a reference object; the spine was sitting on a cutting board. As for the focus, I took five shots with different focus points and blended them in PP. I guess I wasn't prepared for how translucent the spine was. Maybe backlighting would have been better. Something to try next time.
