Hiya All,

A brief respite from the rain & I had a little visitor land on me, no that's not my bald spot tiz my stump it's landed on :lol:

I was trying to get in close to take the shot of it's eyes & thought it had disappeared after the first flash when I moved the camera away to see where it had gone there it was on my stump! it posed just long enough for the one shot

Cheers for now
Mark

Nice shots Mark, that face shot is pretty neat and it looks like it was a tiny fly. The stump shot is my favourite as the detail is really good.

Hiya Alby, Gordon, Skylab,

Many thanks for your kind words & comments,

Alby,
Not bad shot of my Stump is it eh :lol: those hairs are 4mm so that gives an idea as to the size of that Fly

Gordon,
Love you're GSOH if the Surgeon had taken the flesh for my Stump from a bit further round that woulda been a good shot of my arse :lol::lol:


Cheers for now
Mark
