For once I didn't have to go chasing to take a photo. This hoverfly was resting on a planter and obligingly waited while I took a few photos with the Nikon S9050 from just a few inches away. These are still small crops as the lens has to be set to its widest angle to take close shots.
they are pretty!
ReplyDeleteTWG. It glowed even more golden in real life. A real beauty.
DeleteGreat shots of a wonderful insect. I have found a dead fly in pristine condition. I wasn't going to bother with it but will have a go tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteAdrian. All the dead ones I find seem to be covered in dust and mites.
