Took advantage of some light cloud to do some natural light shots of hoverflies. Please excuse the re-use of #1 :)

These are so perfectly captured they look like 3D renderings by Pixar for Bug Life Part 2. Simply amazing Brian.

Great shots all of them. Lighting is very nice indeed. Dont know how you manage to get them so sharp without using a flash!

Amazing shots! the fly in the first one looks huge next to that little white bug, what is that little white one?

Very nice series Brian, although #1 and #2 look a tad dark, especially #1. Surprisingly good DOF for natural light shots.

Thanks for the comments all :)
Dave - think your monitor is on the blink ;)
Just because they are natural light doen't mean I can't focus stack - some of these are focus stacked.

Nah my monitor is fine Brian ;-) Calibrated as well.
Oh, as Rutha73 noticed (and myself), #1 has a springtail in it ;-) Bonus!
