what kind of camera do you have?? your photos are great!
for the Oxypilus Annulatus hatch I didn't have time so i was using my Samsung galaxy S3 with Macro lens up grade ,,so is a cell phone shot .. other Bigger Mantis I use Canon T4I 650D with Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM. To be hones I don't think i have the skill to take shots that good, so the Lens I bought is just wast of money $1200 ... If i can go back i wound buy the 60mm Macro lens with a good Macro Flash or just the 100mmf/2.8 not the (L) version ...

those are some great shots for a cell phone. the lens upgrade was well worth it. at least you have the other camera and lens though! you shouldn't regret it at all. i would love to have a camera good enough to take shots like some of these.
