I don't know British insects, but the fly looks like a bee mimic (and made me want to stand on my head to look at it).

Excellent stack on the 2nd image, Nice Detail. I'm guessing tripod with the shutter speed??

Nice series! Now for your next assignment: a refraction of a flying insect in a dew drop on the antenna of another insect.

Ha.

Ha Ha No that's been done before, I'd be looking for something original. Thanks for the comments.

Thanks Mike I was lucky with the bee as I think he was asleep and as for the spider I think he just wanted to get in on the act.
