A macro of a Fly that I spotted on an interesting plant that I was photographing. It didn’t stay still for very long so I had to work quickly each time it flew onto another part of the plant. An untouched image.
I became interested in Digital Photography when I got my first Digital Camera in 2004. Photography has grown into a real passion over the last few years as I have learned more and my skills have progressed. Buying a digital SLR in 2009 opened up a whole new world of Photographic possibilities that has substantially increased my interest and devotion to the craft.

What a brilliant macro. I am amazed that you spotted him!!

Thank you ! :) He looked like a part of the plant, until I peered around the side of the camera. I could push the camera right in there, but the camera would blur most of him out so I sacrificed scale for clarity.

Thanks Tom ! There are quite a few bugs around here, I just had to develop the patience to chase them from plant to plant as they move around.
