Location
In the back gardenTime
Was late afternoon, the fly was pretty slow it wasn't that warmLighting
At this magnification I always use a flashEquipment
Canon 5d mk iii, canon me-65 lens, and a canon mt-24 flash, handheld a they never seem to stay still enough for me to use a tripod.Inspiration
I just love the eyesEditing
Conversion to black and white, didn't need much elseIn my camera bag
I prefer shooting wildlife so 600mm f4, 300mm f2.8 and a couple of macro lenses are my preferred choice.Feedback
Be patient and move really slowly or the subject will fly off.
