Looks great to me Denis.

We tend to aim for a natural looking light, but in a lot of cases natural light on these bugs show reflected highlights. I would say the diffusion is about as good as it gets.

you,re right.you get a lot of harsh highlights on sunny days.
I much prefer a cloudy day for shooting.
