Description

Hi all, Yes I know I know *SIGH* The bugs are at it here now LOL..... These guys were tiny... Hmmm wait NO I cant say that cause I'll be implying that they are gay :| AHHH *rolls eyes* OK.... These flies were minute to say the least... Light levels were low and there was a good breeze so had to crank up the ISO and still couldn't get the desired aperture so I just had to make do... Yeah I know it's not the best macro shot I've done but think it's pretty funny :P To see better ones please go to Enmos' Gallery Thanks for all comment on my previous pic:

I think it's VERY funny! And not a bad macro at all! I like the DOF and the ISO levels do not bother really. So... Quite a cool shot me thinks!

I still think you did a great job, even if you aren't satisfied with it. You sure made me laugh. My dad has these little flies in Florida. When in season, they fly together and everything. Talk about horny..Aloha

Beautiful photo! Looks like real life where the female is pretty bored and just taking this, and the male looks humpified and horny! (Don't think humpified is a word)- Very cool photo- LOVE the colors and looks almost National Geographic!!) Excellent capture!

To quote Piet,"noble",indeed...LMAO at this brilliant capture,Kai.You certainly caught them 'gettin' busy'...lol.And it's wonderful that you defer to others you admire.That's an admirable quality.As I said to someone else tonight,all great art stands on the shoulders of others.Bravo to you on this most wonderful capture.-M :^)

you animal pervert! crawling around in the undergrowth on your belly just to watch flies have sex! i shall be sending some men in white coats shortly ;) Great shot btw - they almost look like half animal half machine - their upper body looks like it is made from metal! Nice concept as well shown in the composition/title/"activity". yes it would have been amazing to get a better dof on their wings but that is a minor consideration :)

Grin - got no qualms with this shot - it is way better than what you give yourself credit for. And it is level with Jeroen's work.

Haha so you DID upload it, eh? Great shot, I like it, and the fact that you couldn't zoom in very far gives them a very "minute" feeling. Great shot :-)
