This is another species at the RHS Wisley event. For a classic shot see nferguson's:

I saw only ones with wings closed when I was close enough to photograph them.

The images have been cropped, including further cropping by the software for the cross-eye stereo. I'm surprised that the stereo worked as the base separation and inconsistent angle were far from ideal.. The insect was feeding on a slice of mango or pineapple.

EM-1, Kiron 105mm f11 or f16, twin flash, hand-held

    Thanks, SB.

    I should have moved round to the left for the last one but it was difficult, due to the paths filling up with people.
