Focusing with Macro Lens


 
 
I recently purchased a Sigma 105mm 2.8 Macro lens, I have been playing around with it lately, but I am having some difficulty achieving focus. I am not using the auto focus feature, am using manual focus for most of my pictures, however while parts of the bee are in focus some parts are blurry. In this particular picture I used a tripod, camera settings are: Canon 20D, Aperture Priority, 1/1600 shutter speed, 6.3 Aperture, ISO 200. I was appx 12 inches from the bee when I captured this image. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Thanks in advance
Laurie
