I'm guessing this is a common fly, well i do seem to see a few!

C&C on the shots would be good

probably a Greenbottle - Lucilia caesar, but there are many similar flies. #2 works really well.

beautiful captures!


Mircales happen every second of our lives. You just have to be aware enough to see them.

#2 for me as well. The angle of shot and background work well IMHO.

Nice, agree with all the others - shot 2 is the better one.
@nwa2, the OP said it was a 'green fly', i.e. it is green and it is a fly. :)
