A cold bee fly

Made an unexpected find in the garden the other morning, a cold and slightly damp bee fly clinging on to a camellia bud.
Of course I couldn't resist a photo opportunity. All shots except the last one are focus stacked using zerene.
600D/sigma 105 OS, 5dmk2/MPE-65/430Ex flash. All handheld.
I'll post some cross-eye stereos in a separate post.

Warming up on my finger



Revving up it's flight muscles to warm them up
