ok, ill bite,
what kind of camera?
are you using a tripod? if not you really should not bother taking macro shots. you can get one for $20 at walmart that will do the job. more expensive ones are better but not necesary imo. i am going to get a better one soon.
and from what i see in the first and last photos you need to clean the glass, which should be your first step in taking pictures, even before you whip your camera out. it is a waste of time to take pictures with water marks and salt spots on the glass. the camera obviously had a hard time focusing, wanting to focus instead on the streaks and water marks which are closer to it.
