Is this normal?

I am trying to sew "in the ditch" of my quilt, but i cannot see where my seam is lined up that well in the tiny hole of my walking foot! it's so frustrating and my eyes are killing me.

It's the first time I used the walking foot, and the back of my quilt does look great, no puckers or pleats at ALL. I love that part. But is it normal to not be able to see where you're sewing??
