Super shot. Never thought of them as having toes before.

Thanks for the compliment Sheldon, Sandi, Stan, Noni, Dan, Tupe! :)

Dan, you will love the release cable, especially when shooting with tripod.

Tupe, i didn't know about the toes either until i saw them from the picture. The most interesting looking part is the abdomen. It looks like the brush for bottle cleaning. :D

Great capture Rebel. I presume you had a typo (as I often do :rolleyes: ) and actually meant a "robber" fly.

That's an excellent pic. How did you focus so fast? What lens?

You did great with this one Fee, love the details and wonderful exposure and composition here and it's amazing what one can do with some tubes and an external flash unit :)

That's an excellent pic. How did you focus so fast? What lens?Thanks Paul. The fly was very coorperative. He stayed there like a stone and let me manual focus using the Bigma. ;)

Very nice there cfcRebel... fantastic detail and sharpness. Handheld or tripod? Either way... it's a great shot.Thanks Luis. I have to use tripod because the Bigma is too heavy for me, unless i'm willing to sacrfice some sharpness.:)

Yup, pro quality all the way. Great shot!Thanks Dennis. I'm glad you like it. ;)
