The lady bug images are my favorites, but I also like the 3rd image of the solitary flower.

Nice shots of the lil beetle. Flash is king when shooting insects. This fellow at the following link details his technique and philosophy of macro photography. Google macro flash rigs to see how others are going at it. Macro Illustrated | Nature's Place

In addition to the link Bourbon provided, check out the threads here by Scott Murray and his experimentation with macro flash.

Very good shots.

Here is a quick blog that I put up awhile ago, if you have any queries let me know.

Your pix have a nice smooth rich appearance , a shutter speed of 2000th of a sec is pretty high , you could trade off some of that shutter speed for smaller aperture , which would give you a deeper field depth. But you probably know that already right?

Hi im still learning all this on the camera i used a high iso cause the lighting wasnt the best.

I saw your ISO was 2000 ... big deal , was the result grainy? if it was , then it should be a concern. It doesnt look bad on here , so what should be more of a concern is whether your subject is in focus, as for any photo, you use enough ISO for you to be exposing to the right of the histogram. You will still have grainy shots at ISO 100 if you expose on the left of the histogram.Sure , Your artificial-supplemental lighting will affect the photo, but it can be problematic in and of itself , and one can wait a few hundred shots before approaching that issue IMO.

To be honest i have no idea what you just said ive just started
