Brilliant - seriously considering one of these because of the size and versatility, but doubt it could replace my K-r?

Really nice, David. I've tried the Pringles diffuser, but haven't got anything as good as this.

Stunning

The EXIF for your file says ISO was 200. Possibly a little bit of camera shake? It's really hard focusing well on tiny objects and close to the ground. Was it hand held? It might be worth resting it on something (I have a cheap bean bag for low down shots). Anything would do - some bunched up clothes for example. Just something to hold the camera still and use the timer once you have compose ...

That's really nice composition. You have a very good eye for a photo. Mushroom could be a little sharper, perhaps. It's quite a small file - is a it a crop from something larger? That might explain the slightly unfocused look to the mushroom. It's a bit grainy for ISO 200 when I enlarge it, too. I'm assuming it's a tiny mushroom, if that's a daisy in the background. Might be worth trying ...

Nice shot Linnea. Looks a good lens for that type of subject.

Super shot. Love the water droplets.

Very nice

Looks like a grasshopper larvae. Great picture considering the size!

Hi Brian These bee fly images are good, but improve a lot with a little post processing. I just copied this and spent about 15 seconds and the image improved enormously. I'm not that good at processing either, so I think you would be amazed at the difference it would make. If you want to send me a pm with an e-mail address I'd happily send you a processed copy so you can judge for yoursel ...
