Helloo Everyone!!

Yesterday i found a fly lying dead on the window pane. Not sure what killed it and i was about to flick it away when i realized i have a camera...and that too a dslr!! But unfortunately i dont have a Macro Lens

Anyways i'll still give it a try i thought.
So, armed with a flashlight to light the fly and my camera, i started clicking.
Hope you like it!! and comments and feedbacks always welcome!!!

Cheers,
Zoheb.

Hello there
That's a good attempt. I am nobody to comment on your photographs, but I do want to say that as a nature loving person I always want to see vibrant life....I was very hurt to see pics of this dead fly. Please, no offense meant.

Im really sorry if i hurt anyones sentiments but that was really not my intention. I would have LOVED to photograph this alive, midway in the flight, wings flapping and trust me THAT would be much much awsome than these shots. But unfortuanetly, i couldnt

AND IM A NATURE LOVER TOOO...TO THE CORE!!!

Cheers,

thank you for this shots, I'm going to buy a 1000D with 18-55 IS kit lens and I was afraid that macro photos weren't going to be that good, now I know

thanks
