I love insect macros. brilliant! good crop as well but too bad that beige is showing up on the bottom left. I would have cropped that out. Keep the insect macros coming! |

That's either one really big fly or a very small flower. Great shot! |

how lucky can you get to do this shot. I don't know anyone that has a trained pet fly. |

Thought I left a comment already on this one, but I guess not.
The details are amazing - looking at the hair under the fly and on its legs. The center of the flower is in focus as well - all of which is superb. Nice job throwing the background out of focus - I love this shot. 8 |

Awesome macro, the shallow DOF does a lot for this image, especially considering the sharpness of the flower and the fly. Good job!

I don't like flies, but good shot. nice color. I like the boarder and DoF. (8) |

Beautiful, and, I forgive you for the flower shot :) Just kidding! Cliche done right. At least it's a fly, not a bee. |

Simply beautiful, even the fly. |

Awesome flower, great focus, colors, great that the background sets off the white petals. Not sure about the insect though :O( Kind of distracts from the "Color" theme, my eyes keep focusing in it (kind of an ugly thing, too!) instead of the great colors in tne center of the flower. |

May not be a useful comment but,this is a wonderful shot. |

If that fly would have been colorful you would have won this one! Great shot though - a true master of the macro. |

Like that spring green center and gradient purple on the flower...but my focus veers to that ugly bug. Good shot. |

Lol, one of the less exotic insects to find on a flower, nice catch nonetheless. Also very good dof |

This is a very nice macro indeed. Great detail and the colour of the centre of the flower sets it off. Very well done. |

The colours in this picture are subtly and lovely, and super shot of the fly. The yellow pollen dusting the flower petals and the contrast of colours is great. |

Nice macro, good composition. the fly is very original compared to all the bees. |

Impressive detail on the fly - the black is actually the best colour on display here! Border is a little thick for me though. |

I love this picture. The detail in the fly is cool, even if he is kind of gross looking. Gorgeous flower. |

Great use of the rule of thirds... and fantastic color! Receding focus on the flower really draws my attention back to the main subject. --10 |
