Tiny robber fly

This macro shot of the robber fly is striking—those iridescent compound eyes, with their rich green-to-copper gradient, are a real focal point. The fine hairs and textures around the face are rendered with sharp clarity, giving a strong sense of the insect’s form and surface detail. The dark background helps the subject pop without distraction.

Great use of XStack for depth and focus.

How did you manage to keep the fly so still during the shoot?

Amazing macro!
