Don't give up. Make sure the focus is correct (a beep and a light in the display should tell you when you push the shutter button in halfway), don't jerk when you push the shutter all the way in and most importantly make sure your shutter speed is at least 1/20 of a second or faster. I noticed that your shutter speed is 1/3 of a second -which is much too slow for a handheld shot unless you have the camera on a tripod and set a timer to go off. Move the plant to a sunny window (not in the window but near it) so that you have enough light to insure you have an adequate shutter speed.

Try, try again is the old motto.

Here is U074 in bloom.
