I love the way the shadows look in these two.They were taken with my 100-400 IS L(no need for the macro lens this time).

Nice shots. How far you were away from the subjects?

I had the lens set on the close setting(1.8m) and the lengh at 400.That way you can get closer and closer until the lens cant focus.So you know your limets with it.Plus the lens gives the pic a nice "bokeh" background.
