Brian,

An excellent set.

I think the hoverfly larva is Epistrophe eligans NB The more normal spelling would be elegans but not for this species.

Very nice Brian :-) May I ask what your diffusion set up looks like with this flash? I have just been playing around with bounce flash plus diffuser but the light ends up too high so far.

Thanks for the comments
Chaos- incarnate - my flash set up below and link to the DIY coke cans.
I now use a couple of sheets of diffusion gel over the front rather than kitchen towel.
