Thank you Rupert, that was one tiny fly sitting on the side of the trailer.

Heinrich,they are very good captures,but you can't go past the details of the eyes of the last image.Great work!!

Thanks for the kind comments, that was actually a very easy one to take. The hover-fly was sitting on a window pane and waited while I got a few shots of. I find that with many insects, if you get that first flash of (at this point I don't worry about focus) It seems to stun them and they will sit there for bit.
