Hi There !
I got this shot a couple weeks ago, best close-up of a "bug" yet. Yeh, I was bored!

Some kind of Fly

Good job I'm not on a game show. I had this to be a bee. Oh well! The one thing that I do get right though is that this is a lovely capture with awesome detail and stunning colours. This is a beautiful photograph Shanna. Well done.

Dave.
