This is a robberfly at 1:1. I had seen about 3 or 4 species in Malaysia. This robberfly is a medium size compared to other species.

Great shot. I can see that macro shots are a child's play for you.

Excellent shot! You wouldn't know that flash had been used.

I'd agree with that. I'm not keen on the reflections from many shots with flash used, but this has been perfectly executed, imho. Most definitely an inspiring shot!

Really good and not easy to tell flash was used, which is the best use of flash.

Beautifully shot, a great macro image. I'm no expert, but I agree with all the comments above.
