 | Nicely done, Rochie!  Insects are a tough subject because they move quickly.

| Damn Roch, you must have gone to the insect zoo for those shots. Here in Florida the only thing you find on dog walks is other dogs sh!t and mosquitoes!  Nice shots btw!

| 17 out of 55 isn't bad, especially when you factor in your subjects. Macro photography is one of the least forgiving for movement of any kind. It is similar to long zoom shots. One small movement and the shot is blown. Keep shooting and make it a goal to get a little better each time. Before you know it, you'll look back at your shots from a year ago and realize how far you have come.
