#2 is another common close-up shoots.

#1 is special. Unlike the normal macro/close-up shoots, it shows the environment the insect lives. Sometimes, our macro shoots are too close to the subjects and forget to show where they stay.

I like the bright colors of #1.

Thanks for the comments.

All depends what the photographer likes to show. A detailed body (zoomed) or a whole view. I think giving a unique view from others is the spirit.

#1 Could be better if the BG is "smoother" and also if you try to exclude the orange stalk at the top left.
