Hoverfly this evening - stocking up for the night:

This was low down underneath the fuchsia and I had to rest the flash and the camera against two planters to get an angle.

Had to crop in closer to get rid of uneditable bright pink bits!

Still have it and still use it Bas - but the IS on the lens means I get far more options to go off it now.

Agree on tight frame point......I would also try and clone out the bottom bright pink element. Cheers!

Sometime you can use an image-editor to remove the "uneditable bright pink bits" , its a choice .
Pollens are washed out a bit by the amount of flash , but the image is nice anyway , i lke it .
