Robber Fly and its PreyRobber Fly and its PreyRobber Fly and its Prey isolated on a white background

A Plain flat white paper plate.  Yes, a paper plate. If you're out and about looking to take photos of insects, flowers, or even some small reptiles a white paper plate helps for an isolated white background.  You can also use it to redirect some light on your subject.  For the paper plate make sure it has a matte finish to prevent unwanted glare.  In this photo I used the paper plate as a background and light reflector to shoot this Assassin fly with its meal..
