The Fly

by sandinista

Very unimaginative title for this fly that happily posed for me on the top of the Compost Bin at work today. DFA100mm hand held

It's a great photo. Great sharpness and contrast between subject and background.

Literal titles will always be strong to theme. Loving the experimentation.

It's strange to say this for a 'fly' image, but it is actually very beautiful. A really great macro shot.

Who would think to frame a fly, me most probably it's a fantastic close up and the framing makes it so professional.
