Great macros, like them all a lot, but 2 and 4 really stand out for me. The backlit wings in 2 and the perfect DOF in 4.

Stand-out macros, lovely.
The damselfly looks almost unreal.
So is that now it for this K20 body until it gets repaired (again?)

I think the second shot is a stunner, I just wonder how you got such a good exposure on the underside of the body with the backlighting through the wings (which is fantastic), almost like a stained glass window, damn shame about those other grass stalks or I'd have awarded you full marks, as it stands you only get 99.999999999%
