Brown Lacewing (Family Hemerobiidae)

There was a Brown Lacewing (Family Hemerobiidae, or so I guessed) in my house today.  This gave me a chance to try out the LED ring light I got last week.  Overall, it works just fine by providing a decent light source in poor (indoor) conditions.  It's probably not as good as a (ring) flash but it will do for now.

I "propped" the light onto the Raynox 250 lens and was able to get some (slightly blurry) photos.

Lacewings are a good creature to have around in your gardens because it feeds on soft-bodied insects, such as mites and aphids.
