Your photos are much better. Congrats, Walter. New gear? Nice fly. Never saw this genus. |

Thanks for the answers! @ Jorge: I changed the way the flash lightens the insect. My biggest problem was the shadow under the insect. Now it is a bit better. I also started to use Raynox lenses instead of reversed lens. Have a look at my nature photo blog, I have a post about the gear I use nowadays!
