Made sure the light was on the hover flyEquipment
I used a nikon d800 with a 105 mm sigma macro.Inspiration
The wind was calm and this hover fly wasn't moving much.Editing
Just the normal levels, sharpen and a little vibrance enhancerIn my camera bag
Nikon d800, nikon 300 f4, sigma 105mm macro, a nikon 50mm f1.8 and a sigma 24-70mm f2.8Feedback
