My first Robberfly, not the greatest but the eyes came out nice and it even has a meal.

Not too shabby, Martin (translation: I wish I could do as well!). What tools were you using for this one?

Hi Jerry, that was with the reversed 28mm lens duct taped to a 12 mm extension tube, a piece of milk jug in front of the built in flash, gives around 3:1 magnification, lightweight and even handholdable if you brace your self, I was standing up with nothing to lean on so I was lucky with this one, a couple of shots and he was gone.

Thanks!
