If this isn't a robber fly then I just give up...

The first one does it for me Thomas! Love the composition and use of light. Did you take these with your double flash setup?

Thanks for looking everyone. These were done with my dual flash setup. I'm still tweaking the setup, but I'm pretty happy with the results I'm getting as far as the lighting goes.

I have added my Lightsphere II to the 580EX since then. Here is a shot I took tonight with the latest setup.

Those antennae look like they stretch on forever, I like how they go out of focus ond off the shot. Very nice.

Lighting and focus were right on. Nice job with some nice bugs. That butterfly is wierd looking, not sure what way it's supposed to be facing.

Thanks for the macro fix,
Chris
