According to the EXIF #1 and #2 were flash on, #3 and #4 natural light. My use of flash is very subtle, I don't like to be able to tell it's been used. And I couldn't remember myself, had to check the EXIF metadata.
Dave - no worries on editing. Thanks. Using the modded 40D and white balance is always a little touchy.
PS - it's definitely not a sweat bee. It's very similar to a blue-banded, but the stripes on back weren't noticeably blue, though the rest of it's features did look the same. It's some sort of solitary bee, maybe a carpenter bee? It was quick like a blue-banded, but my patience paid off waiting for about 15mins for it to settle down, cleaning itself.
Edit: I've fixed the WB and contrast a little. It was definitely off. Stupid batch processing in LR - still getting used to it.
