It is basically from when I first got my 90mm back in 2012 and to now. I think you can see a slight improvement.

My macro should improve with my new Tamron 90mm. The 85mm DX and the old 105 just didn't inspire me enough. Now just waiting for spring.

I have decided to challenge myself even more with my macro, instead of taking static images of bugs etc I am going to try and capture action/drama in them. This will require more than just walking up and snapping a pic of a single insect/spider it will involve multiple insects/spiders in the same image. I have a few like this but want to do more and with more punch.

A few examples.

Cane toad VS Green Tree Ant.

I think all these tell a story of survival, this is what I want to capture more of.
