A few look a little overexposed, so choose a quicker shutter speed if you can.
All in all, you captured them wonderfully!!! That bee is just amazing!
Thanks! One day I will carefully read the owner's manual of my Canon 40D and try again, but I'm just using the auto settings for now. I was hoping that the proper setup would obviate the need to learn the custom settings because last time I tried to customize, the pictures were much worse.

You have a really nice camera model, too! What kind of flash do you have?
It's a Speedlite 430 EX II, with a diffuser. One day, many years from now, I'd like to take a photography class.
