not focused well , or blur.

1st off, it is not the wind or the grass's problem that is causing u to not focus well.
It is ur camera settings.
At that kind of aperture and shutter speed, don't expect u will get a sharp picture especially when there is movement.
You need a very fast shutter to capture things in motion, e.g. 1/2000s.
And it was broad daylight, so using such a shutter speed is no problem.

2nd thing, u r shooting macro, why r u using such a small aperture?
Remember aperture affects the "bokeh" effects of macro shots.
The bigger the aperture, the better the bokeh (f/2.0 > f/7.1).

3rd thing, if u r really having problems focusing, y not manually focus? (assuming u used AF for this shot).
This way, the camera will not be cheated by movements of the grass.

Not bombing u here Ramblie, so no hard feelings ya!
Learn from mistakes.
I m learning from a lot of guys here too!

use Manual mode bro,
lock the aperture at highest value
then only tune your shutter speed

using M too much will spoil your slr?

how can someone spoil a camera using M mode? dun tell me u didnt disengage the gear before turning the focusing ring... then its ur fault d...

  Walau ~~~~the 1D mark look so small ......
like a compact .......
so hv u check the price tag?
