Holding on for a bumpy ride

I'm not a great fan of flies, but another wonder of 365 has been the detail and surprise of macro shots... I've seen things in my garden I didn't ever know were there. I mean, I didn't know flies had long eyelashes, never mind a line of tiny ones too. This little fly had taken a break from the cat food (ugh) and was having a wash on a grass seed, despite the wind blowing it around a bit.
Sooc apart from the crop.
Thank you for calling by - you are the best 365ers around :)

Great shot. I completely agree with your thoughts as well.

[Rose Humphrey]

Even flies look beautiful :)

[Lisa Pouncy]

Not keen on flies buzzing round my head but I do love them macroed up. Lovely metallic sheen and hairy backs :o) xx

[Margaret Pengelly]

I always love the rich maroon of the eyes and that spectacular gleam of aqua blue. Beautiful macro

[Roxy]

Wow, don't love them either but coloring is very cool

[Shirley Banford]

Wow! He's almost beautiful up close!

[Cathy Donohoue]

Super macro. I have learned a lot with a macro lens.

Hi Phil! My challenge for you this week is to take some shots with the panning technique- either an action shot or an abstraction.

[Tony]

Beautiful detail and fantastic colours. Fav

[Pete]

Super macro shot - very revealing!

365 has taught us to see beauty in unexpected places. Great macro.
