Flying Hoverfly

Great images Dan!
Have you used a flash? Sorry, I am new to the macro game.
 
Wow those are amazing! How long did he stay still for for you to get those pictures? Or were you chasing him around?

thanks!

He kept landing in a flower, so I just disturbed him very slightly so that he would pop out to see how safe it was. Then he'd go back into the flower, I did this a few times.

The flower was one I had sugar watered too, which might be why he was so insistent on not leaving his post!

Brilliant shots. What is the recipe for sugar water, or is it just as it sounds??:thinking:
