Any obvious problems here? Any tips?

Hi WW
My favourite is number 1, although the black expanse to the right seems a little too big and my eye kind of gets drawn away from the subject. Perhaps a closer crop with not so much empty space to the right....although this is just my personal taste.
Don't let the Government see your 2nd pic, or they'll be all over you

WW I think that you are well on your way to mastering this lens. The world of macro is fascinating.

congrats on the new lens.
I like the last cicada shot.
The first one is nice too, but I feel the OOF stuff in the top left is distracting for me.
Keep em coming.
Steve

Fantastic WW. My love of macros is going to cost me some more money soon methinks

That is a very nice lens.
