Welcome . Nice series of photos. You are going to enjoy the Macro forum. Macro and Close-up Photography
Currently there is a Bokeh photo challenge there. Your photo #6 would be a good one to post in that challenge.

Thanks y'all.

I plan on getting deep into the macro section once I get back home to my cable connection.

I use a D90, SB-600 w/softbox, and the lovely Sigma 105mm 2.8 EX DG macro, sometimes with Kenko tubes depending on what I leave the house wanting to get. What I will add when in the near future is the Nikon R1 kit so I can ditch the SB-600 and use the built in commander in the D90. Also thinking, heavily, of trading in the Siggy 105 for the Siggy 150mm 2.8 because I know after they release the new Sigma 150mm OS, there will be quite a few used Sigma 150s out there.... unless I change gears and run for the Tamron 180 SP Di....
