Recently purchased a 100 mm macro from the ads here and just trying it out David this was taken hand held tried a few wasnt happy so set I think f8 to see what dof I could manage still not happy so added a fill in flash seemed to work and I dont do PS just little tweak with the sharpening I think thats it really the hardest part was holding the camera still
Thankas David as always your comments as with all help the old confidence
All the best

On the money! - I like these hover flies not only are they colourful, but the tend to stop for a while making shots a 'little' bit easier to achieve
