I'm pretty sure the leaves blocked the light from the flash on the 3rd pic.

Thank you, you and I both but I can't wait till I get better at macro, it's actually physically demanding with all the squatting and holding your body in positions the muscles aren't used to to get down to bee level so maybe when I get better I will be faster and get the job done faster/strain less.

Great way to generate a buzz! Nice set, It sucks when you start going through shots and find out the best ones are just out of frame or focus, takes lots of practice, and I feel ya on the squatting bit. these turned out nice, looking forward to seeing more. Heck I could use the practice myself if I can get some time to shoot!

Practice, practice, practice! Good natural light will beat artificial any time. You're doing very well. Keep it up!

Thanks guys! #1 and #2 didn't need any flash, they were out in the open in good light but it appears that #3 could've used a little extra light to light the underside a bit.
