You find the best dang flies don't you with the coolest looking faces too I dunno if its the drought or what here, but we barely saw any flies this summer.
Those Bubble Blowing Flies are amazing, I hope I see some in USA in May.
Thanks for sharing your stunning Macros Brian

Firedancer- I use a Sigma 105mm EX macro lens, but all the macro lenses from the major manufacturers are excellent- seems to be the one lens type they all get right. Most of the shots were also with 33mm of extension tubes plus in the case of the springtail a closeup lens equivalent to a reversed 50mm lens.
