The quality of light in these is fabulous. And the detail ain't bad either!

Actually, when I can take a shot even half as good as these, you won't have to wait for me to post them - you'll hear the triumphant shouting!

Thanks for the comments all - appreciated
Only slightly odd thing re the light was I was purposely shading these with my body from the bright but low Winter sun. You can often get away with this with feeding bugs but I do test their sensitivity first by momentarily shading them and seeing how they react.
