Another great set Alf. I really like the feeding Skipper (y)
 
A truly beautiful series, I especially like the Latticed Heath.
Good set Alf. Nice variety.
Lovely set, love the weevil and grasshopper.

Wonderful set Alf. (y)
Brilliant images!
Very nice set

Thanks all glad you like them
 
I like those! One of my favourite flies, and then a really nifty composition with that fly in the background. And then another interesting composition; "rule breaking" I suppose, but it works fine for me. And the damselfly grooming. All good.
Thanks Nick
Lovely set, yellow dung beetle my choice for #1.
Couple of questions and I'm not asking you to give away any secrets :D.
I notice that you use flash, could you share details?
Do you use any support or are these hand held?
Thanks
No secrets here. All handheld last three are natural light with a telephoto lens.
The dung fly is with my olympus OMD e-M1ii and Sigma 105 f2.8 and STF-8 twin flash and homemade diffusers. It is a two shot stick from handheld shots.
This is shown in the macro rig thread post 666 shows my latest rig.
