I don't suppose you can tell us what kit you use to get that? I enjoy macro but simply can't get in that close!

Hum... I used my EOS300D + Canon 100mm f2.8 macro; the fly was very big :), for smaller insects, itīs a good idea to try the lens + extension tubes :).

I guess I'd have more luck getting a macro of an insect with a larger flower. I saw a bumblebee visiting periwinkles the other day, but those flowers are so small that it kept moving. :|

Excellent shot, in any case. ^_^

Okay, so, I think I could learn from you. Do you think you could give me some pointers on macro photography of speedy insects? (I happen to have the same camera and lens as you). I'd much appreciate it.

I donīt know a lot about macro photography. I always try to approach to the insect very slowly and, in most cases, crawling, and the rest itīs a question of luck :). Itīs important not to move the grass around the animal and not to make noise :).
Huum... I always wear black clothes, but I think is not important :D.
