Hehe, now my top two photos are titled exactly the same.. I was hoping that would happen. :)
Wish I could have found this guy again: , not that I'm at all displeased with my entry (which I now think I may have overcooked a little....) ;)
Here's an outtake that shows how big this guy was:

I really liked the way the anatomy of the wing twitch mechanisms showed in this, but went with the prettier entry.

Congrats to all winners. They are all the best macro shots and well deserve for ribbons.
I appreciated my score very much and thanks all for the comments. As expect I go in to add up the numbers, my shots taken just hours before closing. Really short of time to sort all of it.
Here my outtakes,
Ladybug is too common
Shallow DOF disadvantage

Not clean
