Wordless Wednesday: Fly on a Hosta Flower

Fly on a Hosta Flower

I took this picture in my front yard.  I can’t believe I was able to get such a clear shot of the fly without disturbing him.

    The picture is beautiful. It’s so vivid and crisp. It’s hard to believe a fly could look that good!

    That’s cool. It’s always extra impressive to me when people get great shots of wildlife like that, no matter what it is :)

    Happy Wednesday! :)

    Great shot! The fly has no idea he was caught on camera!

      Thank you.  I was surprised at how clear it came out and that he didn’t fly away.

    What distance away were you?  New camera?

    • http://livingoutsidethestacks.com DaenelT

      It was the new camera.  I was about 2 feet away and I used the zoom.  It really is a fabulous camera.  Love it.

    Cool pic! Around here you’d be more likely to catch one of a mosquito.;)

      You know, I really haven’t seen any mosquitoes yet.  Of course, now I’ll be swarmed by them tomorrow.

    That is a very cool photo. I haven’t seen a fly like that for a long time. We have nasty deer flies.

      Eep!  Those deer flies hurt when they land on you.  It’s like they have teeth or something.

    Love it! Especially the iridescent green against the white of the flower. :)

      Thank you.  I’m so totally loving my new camera.
