That is the key to success when doing macro over the past 2 years I have shot over 30,000 macro photos

All three images are excellent. Time to place a photo of your macro set-up here: http://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-32754-1.html

Also, is it my imagination, or is fly in first image looking angry?

Thanks, Nikonian72. I just sent it in to the bug guide. Hopefully, I'll find out what it is. I will also get a photo of my macro setup this weekend.

I just found out that the first one is a Peacock Fly - Callopistronyia Annulipes.

Great captures, no 1 looks like he/she is about to attack, it's kinda cute; this one would make a great cartoon character in a bug movie!

What do you mean "doing the nasty" that's not what we call it down here? :)
