These guys are really shiny, even diffused, it's difficult to lose the glare of the flash

    Lovely series of shots - esp like the head-on shot #3

    Difficult to get rid of all highlights and I never really try. Many bugs like this are reflective and the highlights just demonstrate this.

    Nice work Phil, Lady Bugs have this same problem when it comes to flash, they too are very reflective.

    You did extremely well with this lot clap.gif .... Skippy :D
