They surely look like good photos to me, maybe only #3 has a bit too much unfocused body.

The first bug really looks nasty, what is it?

Thanks for looking and commenting!!

@ Orio: the one in the first photo is a Tiger beetle (Cicindela hybrida or C. maritima, one of both, it's hard to tell....). If you google Tiger beetle, you get many pics and info...

P.S. I need that lense! Great shots and I love the colours on the 1st.

Great pictures. My favorite is "Grainy Background"; for some reason it reminds me of something from Star Wars!
