Hi folks,
I know... if I want to see my own image I can easily look in a mirror, but this morning I thought I'd try something else...
Well not really! Before I knew it I was in the backyard with my camera hunting flies.... something I seem to do on a regular bases these days.
Found this fly. He kept real still, specially for me!
When I first saw the image on the screen I could actually see my own reflection in it's green body! WOW.
Can you see me???

Cropped and added a tad of saturation. No sharpening this time.
Hope you like this!

Cheers,
Anneke

hi Ejtaan,
very nice fly! It is visible the structure of wings and (probably) your reflection in her green cuirass! ...interested looking-glass :)
super composition - I congratulate!

Hi Anneke,
Fantastic clarity! Such a professional looking shot. The focus looks very deep and precise here, an interesting and busy BG too. Well composed, can easily see your reflection on its back. Well captured.

TFS,
Scott.

You are right Anneke , surprisingly you're reflected on the fly's back , that's unique in a way , one shot to brag a little about at the club , he he ! Sharp and neat capture , btw lots of critters are found in that yard of yours but don't let them into the house though !
A good one,
Carol
