All of the shots are great.
I really like the tortoise-shell beetle shot. The hole in the leaf next to the beetle adds a lot of interest to the photograph.

Excellent images ... particularly the fly and the beetle ... and taken with minimal and very portable apparatus

Thanks a ton, gents!
dunksargent - Agree, I love the portability the Olympus system gives me
Dassi - Yes, was amazed at the unique coloration. Decided to leave the hole in the leaf as I too felt it balanced out the image
