Excellent work - it's hard to take macro shots of moving subjects. What's your camera setup?

Great shots! How you catch them in the air? Which gear did you use?

the mating couple is just pure luck. i never saw such again. but those single flying hoverfly is much easier. i used nikon d80 and 60mm macro lens. with external flash. with practice you can do it too.

I love these shots, nice work! Plenty of luck and skill involved here :)
The shots look so crisp, like you've used focus stacking, but I imagine it would be hard to get multiple shots. Are these all single shots?

Yes. i got 90% lucky. and maybe 10% skill. just single shot. btw i used the AF-ON button to focus. not the shutter release. since i found out i can capture event/timing better. i did experiment on stacking but only on non-moving insects.
