The first shot is wonderful Brian. The rest are "merely" extra nice ~ Ron

Brian,

Nicely done.

I was confused by the discrepancy in the backgrounds of the stereo pair but it doesn't seem to matter when viewed in stereo.

Lovely shots Brian. You say studio shots - is it a live specimen or have you prepped / posed it ?

The 1st one seems to have much more colour/contrast than the others, particularly the background, why is that ?

Thanks all for the comments

Andy - It is alive. I found it on the backdoor frame in temps of 1'C. I coaxed it onto my finger and then took it inside the house for the "studio" shots. I released it back into my greenhouse which at least has frost control heating.

The "studio" is just a plastic box turned upside down with the hoverfly sitting on it- there is a piece of coloured card propped up behind the box. The background unfortunately gave some flash reflections depending on the shooting angle I was using hence the difference in colour intensity.

The close up shot, head on is amazing. Really is a superb creature portrait. Kudos for your work!
