This non-descript looking fly is transformed when looked at close up.

Great detail - even in the tarsi. Out of curiosity, can you get extension tubes for the Sigma? With the 50mm you wouldn't have much working space, but you'd get well past 1:1. I use them occasionally with my 60mm, and with the right subject (like flies), they work well.
