 Dragonflies are very obliging as they settle on bare sticks to digest their food...and don't move. The robber fly was eating its lunch ...on the side of our car!!

 Here's a shieldbug on our double glazed window...hence the shadow.

 I had a bit of fun with the shield bug....caught it in a plastic cup and waited till it climbed out. It then went round and round the rim, so I decided to do a crazy multi image. Only problem was it turned round and went back the other way just as I wanted to get the 4th image. :whip:

 Should have said ....all taken with natural light. I am not a fan of ring flash as it gives a flat lighting effect. IMHO. I did try the expensive Nikon SBR1 flash head unit. Found it good in that you can vary lighting side to side to give more shadow control ....but it was bulky and a pain to set up. (I am a lazy photograper! :lol:)
