Default Fly with the new diffusers

Found this guy in my mums garden this evening. MPE-65 and MT24ex with my new homemade diffusers. All shots have some focus stacking.

Lovely shots- a window gnat
Difficult to tell how well the diffusers are working- these flies aren't too bad from a reflection POV.

True, Ants, Leaf Beetles and ladybirds would be the ultimate test.
