Wow, that last one is fantastic!
I love how you can see the real flower out of the DOF, and then have it sharp in the drop.

Water makes great glass!

Nice shot, excellent job.

The last shot is very nice indeed, Brian. Lovely bokeh and colour. Do you diffuse the flash? I have a Sigma ring flash and it can be quite harsh.

Lord Vetinari

Thanks again for the comments

Rob yes- I use one of my coke can diffusers on the flash - http://www.flickr.com/groups/macroviewers/discuss/72157594312315664/
A bit harder to diffuse the sort of macro flash you have, think most people end up with some sort of tissue or plastic taped over the heads.
