Some Various Insect Pictures From Today

[DeniseBernadette]

Hi everyone, I'm new here. I'm very interested in getting more into Macro Photography. I took a few shots today, though they're not that great compared to what I've seen here so far, I figured I'd post them for some critiques anyway. :)

These were taken with the 20D and the Sigma 70-300mm f/4-5.6, handheld, natural light. (I plan on getting the Canon 100mm macro and some extension tubes as soon as I can!)

Good series, #2 & #4 are my favourite, shame they aren't both more side on to see the heads. Nice one.
