This rather friendly fly posed for me while I was chasing other critters. It seemed rude not to oblige him/her

Canon 40D, 100mm Macro, 580exII flash with home-made diffuser (plastic bottle and paper towel wrok wonders).

thanks for looking.

Great shots Robert.

Sharp as with great detail.

Show us your homemade diffuser.

Robert,

Awesome!

I've only got the 50mm F/2.5 macro, and would dearly love the 100mm F/2.8!

I, too, would love to see your home made diffuser.

Regards,
Humayun

Nice Shots Rob... Who ever thought the much despised fly would one day be a glamour model.
