I like this shot the best, even though you have a bit of camera shake. If I might suggest that when shooting you should try to shoot no slower than 1/focal lenght sec to eliminate camera shake(if you have a steady hand, faster if you are shaky). That means if you are shooting at the 135mm you should be at 1/135 sec. Factor in the movement of plants due to wind and moving insects you should try for a around 1/250(faster for really quick moving bugs). I noticed you had the ISo at 100 and you can easily crank that to 400(800 on you camera is exposed properly and some noise reduction post capture), this will give you some more leeway w/ the shutter and increasing you DOF by stopping down. I noticed on all three images you were around the 1/80 sec which more times than not will cause you motion blur and a blurred subject. Nice pics for your first time out with the new lens!
