Spectacular beyond anything I can say, Andrea! And, what did one hoverfly say to the other hoverfly? "You should see the egg marmalade!"

A wonderful capture of this Marmalade Hoverfly Andrea and even better in zoom but to me the Clematis is the star in this shot. Fantastic details in both!!!

WOW! What a sensual photograph! I also love that hoverfly! This is stunning, superb, and your capture/use of light. This is marvelous, simply gorgeous, and the color just pops from my screen.
