haha. That kind of agility is part of the reason they're so damn hard to kill. Great shot. This couldn't have been easy to do.

Absolutely beautiful and first class macro shot. You have not said what lens and conditions you used for this? Razor sharp and nice treatment for B&W but with the large eyes remaining red.

Great macro! To me this shot is kinda funny. It looks like this fly is trying to do a hand stand!

I'm always amazed at your macro shots, and this one blows my mind! The detail and colour is amazing.

Superbe macro. Même une simple mouche peut se révéler un sujet parfait pour prendre la pose (sur 2 pattes !)
