staged on a 5 p, from my insect collection

That's one furry little bugger ; I bet that must be hard to focus on

Curiously asking, do you collect insects this small? If so, how do you actually collect / keep them?

Would you mind letting us know what set-up you've used; especially the lighting.

yes i do save them, i have quiet a few too.

i'm a pest controller by trade you see..

these are kept in plastic containers (small) left to naturally dry out.

equiptment is a 50d, tripod, tamron 90, jessops flash.
