Really exquisite photographs, the third one has excellent definition and good tonal range in it - very well taken.
Not everything in life is Black & White, If only it were!

Love the third one, especially the yellow structures in the wings.

Thanks very much guys. Im rather pleased how quickly I managed to get the hang of the basics wih the k20d, I just love the two dials/rolly bits (cant think of the proper word) that change aperture and iso in Av mode, so handy with wildlife. And I have no idea what the sigmas are soft brigage are on about! (although it can be a tad slow in low light)

all i can say neil think your self lucky you got a good 150-500mm as mine is back at sigma again and now they want my camera body to calibrate the lens to it, and i found the 150-500mm slower focus then both the 170-500mm i have and had, but optically your pics look very impressive, would be nice to so the full size versions,
just keep snapping,
