I agree the last one is oversharpened. A mistake on my part in PP. The other three only have very minor sharping done with FastStone.

I don't even know what ACR is. If it has something to do with Photoshop, I don't use it. The colors are realistic to what I saw when I took the photos. I sometimes will add a little contrast in FastStone.

The reptile is a juvenile Anole Lizard.

imho these are among the best macros I have seen... perfect post processing in every way... you have a great eye for composition too. The moth and skink? lizard? are outstanding. Well... they all fall into the category "I wish I had taken these shots!" ... thank you for sharing

Yes it is. I rarely get to travel much these days. I have a buffer of weeds, bushes, and small trees between my backyard and a farm field that is a good source of insects and such.
