Some more images from my Insect Portrait Project, you can read a previous post on HIVE about the background of it HERE. But to cut a long story short, I use the 'studio set-up' to help the viewer appreciate the beauty of each insect without any distractions.
And that includes Flies, they are just as beautiful as any other insect...
Muscid Fly Phaonia subventa
Jewel Wasp Pseudomalus auratus
Common Cockchafer Melolontha melolontha
Nocturnal Ichneumon Wasp Ophion ventricosus
