    Nice ones
    Look a bit soft presumably from the wind movement. Try to give bugs a bit more room in the direction they are looking- this takes them off center and makes for a more interedting composition.

    You'll have to make another trip when its not windy.

    Doesn't take much to really spoil a Macro opportunity when it's Windy.

    ..... hope you get another chance to shoot again Steve.

    Good Luck thumb.gif ... Skippy :D
