This pair of daisies was also subject to the "flipped 50" macro style.
UPDATE (3 February 2016): Sometimes looking back at some of these things allows you to take stock of all the errors you've made and how it should have been shot. I try to take the errors as they are but also try to realize that some of these shots worked not because of a lack of skill and a lot of luck, but because they were part of the learning process.
Bibionidae are medium-sized flies with a body length from 4.0 to 10.0 mm. The body is black, brown, or rusty, and thickset, with thick legs. The antennae are moniliform. The front tibiae bear large strong spurs or a circlet of spines. The tarsi are five-segmented and bear tarsal claws, pulvilli, and a well developed empodium. The wings have two basal cells (posterior basal wing cell and basal wing cell), but are without a discoidal wing cell.

Shot with a 24mm lens reversed on 3 extension tubes. The flash is mounted on a hinged hot shoe that allows the flash to lean out over the stack, a DIY snoot fires the light directly in front of the lens.
