Oh! Well, compared to DR's sad-looking yellow Amm, yours was a very fine-looking queen, Fatshark.
Not Superglue ... fast shutter speed and a willingness to sort through dozens of rubbish images to find one half-decent one. I've got (or had, they've been deleted now) any number of her out of focus, walking around the edge of the frame, rear view only or any combination of the three.
The other secret is a large image size so you can crop very hard. If you go for macro shots your depth of field and (as you say) ability to manipulate the frame at the same time makes it very hard work. If your original image is 20+ megapixels you can photograph big chunks of the frame, avoid getting in your own light, use a narrower aperture to get better depth of field etc.
Some of the new high-end small cameras now take 4k video in which they change the focal plane. That way you take a small burst of video and sort through it for exactly the shot with everything you want in focus. Incredible technology (but this one was taken old-skool).
I'm so gullible. No wonder your queen looked so good. I think it's time I get a new camera to help out. Thanks for the advice!

Having just completed some inspections I thought it was time to resurrect this thread. My strongest boxes are too busy collecting nectar to do anything more than pull a few 'play cups' at the moment with wall to wall brood and supers filling nicely. However, another week like this and it's all going to kick off ... (famous last words, what's the betting they'll all clear off this week sometime?).
And while we're waiting ... how's this for an apiary with a stunning view?

On a clearer day your can see the Rif mountains in Morocco from this spot ...
No .... That's Benachie - surely.
A bit higher than Bennachie ... with more vultures.
Another difference ... the sun is shining
