I have played with reversed lenses again. This one from last night, some kind of cranefly (about 1 cm), must have lost a leg in an eventful life.

Dynax 7D @ ISO 100
100-300mm @ 125 with reversed 50mm lens
F32, 1/125 sec
(ring) flash as main light

Do not usually see this side of the cranefly. Nice capture and I like the contrast between the subject and the background. Well Done.
