Another amazing small creature expertly revealed! I think the diffusion has worked well as I imagine the glare and reflections on this subject would be very challenging.

It's a picture you wouldn't think much of but when you take time to look at how it was shot, the gear and more importantly, the lighting, you fully appreciate it! Well done Roger

Having done similar, you have to remember also that they won't sit still. Onward, ever onward is their motto and it makes focusing a challenge.
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass
