Gnat with reflection

Only got a quick shot of this gnat before the cat figured out what I was doing and went right after it. I'm guessing it's a window gnat, since it's on the window :puke1.

A remarkable capture of something so small. Just don't let one ever bite you, or you'll know the meaning of "size doesn't matter" in a most unpleasant way!

Wow!
I'm amazed at this shot...given how small a gnat is, the detail and lighting is amazing. What kind of lighting did you use?

LOvely capture. Think it's a fungus gnat judging by the spurs on it's legs.

Thanks guys for the comments.

Learnin--I have an old Speedlite 380EX that I have on a homemade bracket. It sits right on the end of the lens. I'm also still playing with diffusion.

Fun how cats sudden fixate on things and once they are fixed on it,
nothing will distract them

You sure it wasnt a cat gnat since it attracted the cat rather than a window gnat :lol

Great shot Gary ... Skippy
