Really trying to get some artistic action/flight shots this season, mid evening sat by the globe thistles waiting for an angle on this hoverfly, I love globe thistles as they have nice contrasting colours and great structure but you do have to wait a while for the right angle when shooting on them to avoid your diffuser getting in the way.

Canon EOS R5 with MP-E65mm at 1.5x slight crop, diffused MT-26EX-RT.

Artistic indeed! And the tilted angle of the fly adds a sense of action. Well done!
