Didn't know flies ate/sucked/scraped pollen! Out of curiosity, do you have a pic of the gear you typically use for your macro shots? Would love to see the equipment behind this amazing images. I know now the camera and lens, but I am not familiar with the flash you mention on No Cropping Zone. I've only had my SLR for a very short time, a few weeks now, and have been learning so much.
