Very nice, got to get myself an addapter when I get my K10. Then I can mount and old A 50mm lens on the front.

Tom,
I'm stunned by the magnification you are getting. I have used a 28-80mm and a 50mm, and don't get near the levels you are achieving.

Tom,
absolutely brilliant pictures. I especially like No. 4 (the crop of the first fly). Does give you the creeps
What do you do to avoid them just buzzing away? Some sort of hypnosis? I assume that you have to get quite close to the "beasts"?
Your flash diffuser seems to work pretty good. Keep up the nice work.
