Very nice insect shots. Great use of the onboard flash.

Subject: [OM] Cicada with 50mm 3.5 macro
I dropped my daughter off at her mothers this evening and this guy scared
her and her friend. She kicked it off her front porch into the bushes. I
remarked that it would probably look pretty wicked if I used my 50mm 3.5
Zuiko macro lens on it. The girls then went on a hunt to relocate the
fellow. I placed it on the trunk of my car on top of my camera bag and used
the onboard flash on the E-500, shooting hand held, moving the camera back
and forth to try and determine focus. The viewfinder on the E-500 doesn't
work well for me for manually focussing but out of the series this was the
sharpest.

Sunday, I grabbed a shot of this bee.

Digital definitely helps with playing with my macro lenses.
