These shots are nice. I have seen some macro shots from some members here that would rival these.

For those who might not otherwise noticed, look at the backgrounds as they are beautifully contrasted colors.

I am sure you can post process these later, but a simple trick I can offer is to place a piece of colored paper behind your subject. Some people use solids, others print a blurred flower scene and use it instead. Either way, be sure to bring plenty of different colors and using a color wheel find something appropriate.

Good hunting and good shooting!
