Description

Here's a little Hover Fly I managed to capture the other day; as it was so cooperative with me. I tried catching it in flight -- which I did -- but didn't turn out at all. I keep on trying for that but meanwhile, you will get these instead ... the portrait type, as they just sit and pose for me. Hope you have a great weekend! Today I spend the day with a friend doing crafts. It'll be fun. :-) Thanks for stopping by ... Shari Also .. Check out the August Photo Challenge! Hope you all participate, it will be FUN!

I want to thank you for your visits and favs on my previous upload: Dani Visits Michigan

Excellent detail, one can even see the digestive track it's "heart" is pumping in. I love the low light and vignetting! Great composition. This page with Dani on is such a pleasant display and competes with your bug!

Great bug portrait. I like the way you have presented it. I have only one pic of a bug in flight and it was (at best) a barely so-so shot, lol. Keep trying and so will I. Thanks for sharing. Lee
