OK, I'll offer.
An Icneumon wasp. I believe I have seen one before, but that is all that comes to mind.
A request. It will allow a better chance of ID.
A one or two photo addition of the specimen that allows seeing legs, wings and other anatomical features. Approach full size, if large.
The purple hued beetle has me stumped. I am thinking Chalcophora, a wood borer.
Beautiful style. This may become an artform.

All these images were experiments.......using a variety of lenses, lighting, focus rails, software, etc. It's a "I wonder what" phase I get every so often. Thanks for the ID attempts..........I usually get frustrated trying and give up........
Your photos out shine mine. Can't do it all.
