Hello,

After trying since last year to get a shot of a hoverfly in flight, my 2 minutes of patience paid off today This was the one and only shot I tried to get of one in flight today!

Shot hand-held with the mp-e65mm.



Cheers,

Happy man!

Many thanks everyone, glad you all like it

thats a fabulous capture, extremely well done. What settings did you use?

1/200 sec, f9, ISO100. It was shot at around 2:1 with the mp-e65mm on the 40D, and the flash (mt-24ex) was set on manual to 1/32 (phew ).
