Striking image of the bottle fly... the large eye, the detailing on the body of the fly right down to the individual hairs and the grains of pollen, and the contrast between the fly and the background.


Not the most appealing of subject matters in my mind but presented in such a manner that one wants to view the creature in spite of themselves.

Good control of focus and DoF and the colours including the BG are superb.

That's the wonder of macro ;-)
