Great, great and great. I love it (the picture, not the fly)
MPE-65 is a real lens or just some kind of extension tube? I have not seen it.

basically a lens with its own extending tube that cannot focus LESS than 1:1 and goes up to 5:1

Nice shot/pose/lighting Alistair, what magnification on this one? What's a cluster fly btw guys (I've never heard the time before on these forums and I've been around a while now).
