That's right fellow macro friends, it is quickly approaching that time of year where i inundate you beyond frustration with shots of green bottle flies.

Well fear not, i have no intention of putting you through that for another spring and summer, i have made the executive decision to only bring you the highest quality of variety i can muster. In the meantime....

Viva La Green Bottle! :lol:
