Yes... They call the domes Biomes...

The cluster on the left is tropical whilst the one on the right is Mediterranean...

Nice place, but less wildlife than anticipated, just the one beetle.

Planning to go to Pili Palas in north Wales... Its a huge butterfly house that is going to need a day with good light to avoid needing a flash.

Had wondered about a ring flash or perhaps constructing some fixed LED lighting... Video light esque

Got a couple of battery powered 10W LED site lights which may work with paper diffuses attached.

Not sure how much, or perhaps how little, additional light would be beneficial.

Another question for a post perhaps...

Wow... Only just realising how much I need to learn.

Wouldn't have even looked twice at this on the ground. Can you learn to acquire a good eye?

Setting nothing like I would have expected, is that Fill flash?

NO way I could have take that. Well not yet anyway.

Love your work, it is essentially what I aspire to with respect to its striking composition, although the abstract stuff and the cormorants are more me than the beautiful people...

That said they are beautiful pictures in their own right and there is clearly a huge amount of work in setup, and I expect processing.

Not that I actually know enough to judge beyond admiration...

Thanks for the inspiration.
