Those are a couple of really nice shots. In the first he is angled for shallow depth of field of course but that doesn’t mater as the eyes are the main subject and you got them just right.

  Thanks, David. Those eyes definitely drew me in; they seem to change at different angles and seem unusual for a robber fly.
