Strange looking fly, but a great shot of it.

Good details but most of all wonderful ligting. Would you mind asking what kind of flash you're using?

thank you :)
I use 2 flashes, a bog standard Jessops 360 AFD gives directional light, and a Sigma EM 140 ring flash fills in the shadows and gives some ambient light.
my setup is detailed here

I like his cute little snout.....but mostly I like the colorful flower and the lighting-as always. Lovely! :)
