Learning Macro's

Hi all,

I am still on the Macro bandwagon trying to improve my shots I don't have a macro lens I am using the 1 and 2 extender rings with a 50mm lens and the 1x,2x,3x soligor macro filter's and the standard flash on the DSLR hand held.

Photo 1,2 and 3 is a some bug that was a media tart and gave me lots of practice and posed for ages.

Photo 4 and 5 is of ants tending their herd.

Photo 6,7 and 8 are a bit of a mystery not sure what is going on so any help from an entomologist would be greatly appreciated I can see some egg activity going on but I can't identify the insect that is underneath the fly it may be a wasp laying eggs in the fly not sure these insects were tiny smaller than a match head I didn't even know the smaller insect was there until I looked at the pic's on my computer.
