And there's a bee ... what a surprise.  :)
I like these and I love the bee. The coloration of the bee makes it look as if it is in a bad bee costume. Most of us are left-to-right readers. This makes pushing the right edge of the photo with the principal subject a bit awkward. I think a tighter crop (left and top) on #'s 2 & 3 would give a better feel. #1, my fav, I'd might try a square crop.

Great detail! Is this a stack, and if so, how do you get them to sit still for long enough?
