#1 like it, good light conmtrol
#2,3,4,5,6 the noticeable artificial background is the main problem. like the composition on #3,4
#7 don't like the light blue background (doesn't look natural to me), but I do like the composition
#8 like it!
#9 high magnification in flight shot with the MP-E? thats a first to me :) and perfectly sharp! congrats!

Exceptional shots, Andres! The hover in flight is delightful, as is the bee fly and all the others for that matter! A most pleasurable view. :)

I have to agree. However I don't mind the blue BG (as much) in #7
