Lovely shots Gary.
No.2 doesn't look like a weevil though I very much could be wrong but looks interesting and a quite colourful critter.
Did you get any other shots of it at all ?

Hi Photopainter,
Your shots are fantastic. I've just treated myself to a set of secondhand extension tubes this weekend & have been playing around for days; not managed anything near your shots though; hope you don't mind me asking a few questions?
What shutter-speed & F-stop to you try and aim for, and do you shoot hand-held?
Do you use any kind of flash?
Thanks loads.
