That is a stunner Alistair, well done. ;) Looking at Brian's post it could be a Fungus Gnat ;)

VERY nice shot! But what's he holding? It looks like a minnie breast implant!

nearest I have in my gallery was ID'd as family Sciaridae; very nice shot by the way.

Wonderful shot Alistair - think it's a fungus gnat - which after looking it up makes it Sciaridae as Toby commented.
