Description

It is very tricky getting pictures of tiny fast moving objects with a point and shoot camera, so I was pleased with this although it is not absolutely sharp. I love the way they fly legs akimbo. Bombylius major in my garden, where I have many Primroses that keep these little people happy. Another

Indeed it's such a cute sight, just as if the legs can fall of, and it's a lovely capture, Andrea. btw, you are right, I now see an owl also in my last fractal. ;-)

This is a lovely capture, well done with the camera used and being sharp enough to spot it and capture it in that split-second moment.

Pretty hard with a professional sports camera, maybe 1 in 7 sharp, and that's if you really know what you are doing, so I think you should be very proud of this :) Never get tired of Jeff's superb humour.... Like my favourite crisp flavour!

He he just like a plane that hides its wheels. The only difference is that the beefly's legs is hidden at its side. Wonderful in flight capture Andrea. God bless.
