 My friend was very willing to try this out, I do like how it turned out, even though I know that there are 2 things I could have done better to get a better score. One would have been to use a higher aperture to boost the DOF, and the second would have been to place an external flash to the bottom right of the frame. Unfortunately I don't have an external flash, and the lighting was low so using a higher aperture would have required a tripod which I didn't have with me.

Fly is too 2-dimensional. Red on nose is not flattering.

Interesting idea, but the focus is either too narrow or is off altogether; with more light and a higher f-stop to bring in some sharpness, this might have worked, but without it doesn't work for me.

the only thing standing out is the nostril. this one's unappealing in its delivery.

Definately unique. Too bad you couldn't overlay two photographs, for a real effect! I like your creativity!

Great idea! The fly should be sharp for this photo to be really great (deeper dof) and you have to get read of those shadows.
