[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I was photographing the rose when suddenly this fly came sitting on its petal. It was as if it was saying:'I'm shiny and pretty, take my picture' ^-^
I was really lucky to get this shot, because I only got 3 shots when it flew away again and only one was sharp O.o; ^-^
I croped the original to this composition, originally the entire rose was on it too, but the fly was too small to spot. I also did a little sharpening and brightening, but only a tiny bit ^-^
I am pleased with the result and I hope you like it too ^-^
Please leave a comment :D
Regards Fleury

Hi Fleur,
I just had to come back to this picture. It's definitively worth of comment. The colours are just great. I like contrast between the rose and green background. IMO it could be more sharp on the left side. The only problem of this picture is, what you have called a luck, the fly. Nobody like flies, they are nasty.
You were going to show us a beautiful rose, but suddenly this ugly fly came sitting on it and ruined your plan.
Cheers form Ireland and best of luck, Wojciech.
