All of them are great! I like closeups of parts of small objects. But, next time hire a bee model; a fly is seen by many as yucky. :-) Just joking, of course.

However, I'm sure others remember, or possibly have used, a method back in the days of slow film and cameras of catching bees or butterflies and placing them in a refrigerator until they become lathargic. Then you could take them out (or into the studio), place them on a flower, etc., and they would stay put for a few minutes until you got the shot.
