 Was shooting the underside of some leaves into the sun for the texture challenge, and as luck would have it, a fly landed on the opposite side,having already focused, all I had to do was press the shutter. Hope it meets the challenge and that the fly isn't too distracting... 1/1000 f8.0 -.07 exp comp 171mm Macro. Cropped, levels, usm, Neatimage, sized for web.

While a cool shot, I think it would be more suited to a shadows or light entry. There are a lot of veined leaves in this challenge, yet not many of them really show their texture (if you know what I mean). Most of them look kinda flat. Don't get me wrong, I can see some ribs on this one and as I said, I think it's a good shot. And the fly, while it adds interest, doesn't really add any texture to this particular shot. Not trying to be completely negative - I hope these comments are beneficial (at least as another person's opinion). 6
