Terry, you hit the mark on this on. Great focus on the right places. the fly looks alive and it makes you wonder what the fly is seeing from that side. Canon would love this in an add for the 100mm macro!

Impressive macro work, Terry! Beautiful.

Great macro of this fly, Terry! Excellent job of capturing the metallic color of the thorax and abdomen. The eye, arista, antenna, and palpus of the face well detailed, even the fine hairs that line the legs in the foreground are defined. The curved and textured pink petal in which it is perched provides a wonderful contrast and an ideal background. Well done!

Beautiful color and detail. Just when I wanted the swatter, you go and make him look attractive.

That is really a fly-in-focus -- great detail! And you got him on a pretty background. Super macro.

Outstanding detail in this interesting close-up. I would guess that this is about as beautiful as any fly could ever expect to be. Excellent work...as usual.

Wow, hand me a fly swatter. Great macro. Great detail and DOF. Well done.

Whoa -- now that's detail! This unusual look at a common insect gives me a whole new appreciation for its beauty. Still, I'm not quite ready to ditch the flyswatter... :-) Outstanding, Terry!

Outstanding macro Terry... a sure winner. The petal and subject on a diagional bias taken with the great detail and sharpness create a beautiful image.
