Centre weighted average metering would have been my choice, but there doesn't seem to be too much wrong with the exposures. Why did you use 1/30th for one and 1/500th for the other exposure? The subject isn't going to run away, you know! The macro option is useful only with a very short distance to subject. Shorter than, say, 1 foot.

1st (black ant nest) and 3rd (red ant nest 2) are a bit dark/underexposed. You indicate for all photos "exposure bias value -1.00". If you've inadvertently set exposure compensation to -1, that would explain the underexposure.

Firstly thanks for your time. To answer your question Mr.smith - I was trying to check if AV or TV mode is gives me a better photo- maybe I was reading too much and had lot in my mind and ended up forgeting the basics. Jon with regards to the exposure at -1.00 I believe thats the default setting put up by the camera and I was too afraid to over expose the same by overriding it to 0 or above. Mr. smith subject around a foot away- what setting eg shutter speed and exposure mode would you two advise in future? and should the focus be centre or multi focus ?

In this case I would ideally use a tripod, fill-flash or spot metering with AEL, ISO 100 or 200, Av at F/11 or F/16, selftimer, and obviously centre focus. Have fun!
