A blue bottle ---"gotch ya !!" by beryl

A blue bottle ---"gotch ya !!"

He had been buzzing around in the conservatory to Alfie's annoyance until it landed on my aloe plant !!---and I was ready for him with my camera -I was so pleasantly surprised to see the shine & colour of his body.This macro is more or less SOOC except the borders !
I have realized I am a day in front !!but never mind as i have downloaded -
Its early lunch today ,as I am off to the hospital for a pre-op assessment this afternoon .I hope allall is in order for the op in afortnights time ''only a small op this time -hernia repair !!but lately my polymyalgia _& ostioarthritis are playing up & between these & the medication my blood results are not too good --so fingers crossed !
Great close up Beryl good luck for the pre opp assesment today hope every thing will be ok.
