Fly Peeks In

A few days ago, this fly had been staring into our unit for hours so finally, I decided to just take its picture. Then I thought it needed a better backdrop than our gray skies. So a bit of ETSOOI surrounds the actual fly.

He was hoping to talk to Twiga, he’s considering moving to a warmer climate, I’m sure.

[Milanie]

I like your processing of the background for him. He almost glows

[Jane Pittenger]

Look at the detail on the little protubing hairs

[gloria jones]

Terrific macro

[Harry J Benson]

good macro

[Mary Siegle]

I hope it properly appreciates all your work processing to make it look good.

[Walks @ 7]

Such a considerate fellow to stay put while you took his portrait. Very cool etsooi.

[eDorre]

Well, hello Fly Guy! Very cool view and background.

[Elizabeth]

You can even make a fly look good!

[Diana]

Great shot and processing.

[Pam Knowler]

Wow he was flying high! For some reason I assumed flies stayed on the ground level!

[Lynda McG]

I like it!

[Marnie]

Goodness me, a Peeping Tom at however many floors up you are. Whatever next. Love the image BTW.

[Kate Klinck]

This is like something overlooking us on earth.

[Judith Johnson]

[Steve Pooley]

Great macro and love the background

[Lois]

Fantastic macro!

[Kahsia]

Love the background. A great macro.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

It certainly is a pretty backdrop! We just had a fellow speak at photo club last night on extreme macro. While flies are pretty ugly in my opinion, I do have to say their eyes at 4X magnification are pretty fascinating!

[Marloes]

I like your pov here and the wonderful details.

[Diane]

Nice image!

[Tom]

Great capture of the underside of the fly

[Islandgirl]

Awesome close up!

[Junko Y]

Oh, my -- Taffy, I could not have expected this to have your name as the photographer! But cool closeup in any case.

[Mandy]

Great macro - I have a bluebottle buzzing around at the moment - obviously come for a closer look at its cousin!:-)
