Nice
Is that the same fairly-hairy fly as http://photomacrography.net/forum/viewt ... 251#206251 ?
I don't think it's a tachinid though.

Nicely shot. The proboscis structure looks similar to the blowfly that I shot at http://www.photomacrography.net/forum/v ... hp?t=16216 .

It looks great to me, certainly better than any insect macro I've ever done.
