Stunning shots. My favorite for composition is Fly. The fly just seems to have so much character and is very deserving of his centre stage role. They are all lovely though.

K5 + 18-135mm kit lens

Your flies seem so much dirtier than our flies over here

Very nice series - I like the hovers in flight best because I know they are not at all easy and these are excellent.
