Macro Monday!

I spent a few minutes out in the garden today looking for likely candidates to try out my new 100mm Macro lens, i got a little closer than I generally like to, to a spider and took and oportunistic snap of a hover fly who landed on a handy leaf. I love the last flower pic, if only i'd rearranged that front petal!
They were all taken at f11 so not a lot of ambient light, so i used my speedlight off the camera to get the right exposure. What do you reckon to my first attempt?
