I caught the humour (finally) and therefore found this image captivating. Nice imagination you have.

ahhh haaa thought this was yours. A winner in my eyes and the reason I didn't enter this contest, I knew you would be here. Your macros are top of the shelf stunning...hope you are selling them. Really a good shot.

A triple crown - CONGRATULATIONS ! ! !

I am still miffed by the fact you took 20 photos of this fly without him moving? Can you share your technique with us please?

Fly focus stacking

In our photo club, the latest talk is all about focus stacking. Th Olympus Tough Touch automatically takes 30 images for photo stacking then in the Affinity software program the image gets produced. How did you manage to still this fly and shoot at various apertures without him moving? This is a top-notch photo but it is too bad the leg is obscured by the green.

Love the composition of this piece, blurred yet those eyes are in full and sharp focus. You knew what you were doing with that camera. In gallery showings, the title matters and in judging images the title shows the creativity of the artist. Your title would help sell this piece, I love it.

With eyes showing the facet geometry so well we are drawn to this great macro. It is also good to know his name as I can now call them by name when I shoot them, they are everywhere here in Thailand. Love the detail , the colour, the head shot. Top notch. (ahhhh it's you, I should've known) ha.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE this. I'm curious to know which software you were using because the only feature I have is to make water flow, so this movement is intoxicating. Great entry.
