Looks good Brian. Out of curiosity, with 1.3 shutter speed for 15 shots this fly was still for 19.5 sec. How do you get the bugs to stay still for that long? Around here a fly will land and then take off pretty quick.

Actually counting the time between shots and the shots that got deleted it was probably closer to 30s. After more than 15 years of creation we have a really laid back garden. Beasties seem to feel safe here and let us get pretty close.
