It's just amazing how close you have managed to get to this fly. Must have been quite occupied with his meal this fellow. Never seen a feeding fly before, but now I have, thanks to you.

The only thing I would say you could have done better is the background. I would have liked a bit more color there... but I guess that's not for you to decide, how the the background should be. Maybe you could persuade the fly to eat on the petals of a flower next time =)

Great shot. Also pretty original, given the subject matter. I'm into shooting bugs too and it's hard to get a somewhat original picture of them.

Impressive image. I have enjoyed the view. I will add you to my favorites and look at your stuff in more detail as time permits. What lighting are you using with that lens?

Nice to get into your favourites!

You were added to mine a long time ago :)

I am using a Sigma 500 dg super flash that I often handhold to get a good angle for the light. Sometimes I snap this flash onto the lens with a cheap clamp.
