Do spiders have noses? :) Agree with Laurent, shot 2 is a cracker.

i found a dead moth that had been dead about 10 mins so i threw it in his web..after he culed it it with silk i pulled him off his web with a cane with the food stuck to the web..when i put him on the floor he wasnt going any where till he finished that food..that gave me a good 10 mins to get some great shots.this mpe.65 is one hard lens to use and u need a very cooperative subject

What working distance do you get with the MPE-65? Does the working distance alter with change in magnification?

Yes it's 4" in front of the lens at 1:1 but 1.6" in front of the lens at 5:1.
