Nice. I find starting out it is best to put the sweet spot in the center until you get use to it. If you put it all the way to the corner, it will not be the lenses sharpest image. Gradually move the sweet spot away from center and test the shapness.

I purchased some accessories to help with macro photography for me this Christmas.  Example a chip soldering arm/holder and plate. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C1ZZ9Y2V
