    first frame the bee is too central in frame and looks a bit "soft".
    could also do with a little brightening with levels in ps.
    2 nd frame also needs lightening, the cameras meter has exposed for the lighter flower, try shooting with +.5 or +1 exposure compensation to get better exposure for the darker subjects on brighter backgrounds.[fec for flash shots] it does take a little practise but you will soon get used to altering for different subjects.

    Agree with Phil's advice- but not bad either - feeding bees are not the easiest subjects.
