Description

This fly was trying to stay warm on a flower. There was a cool breeze blowing. I got up close to it and it could not be bother to fly away. Of two shots, this one came out great! No editing at all, except to crop it down some. Lee Lewis Cahokia, IL www.jubchuqun.com/lee

I must agree with GiMi53 that my upload is a bit to large. This is only my second upload to Renderosity and I was trying to meet their strignet guidelines with care. Next time I will make it a bit smaller. (at least I got a thumbnail THIS time!). I have been working on betterphoto.com where the resize the image make the thumbnail automatically, so I have been a bit spoiled! (Lee)

Thanks everyone for your wonderful comments and encouragement! I am new here, so I really appreciate it. I submitted this pic as "Nature & Landscape" ... but I probably should have listed it under "macros" (can you change it post facto?)
