Wonderful image, Al! Love the DOF and colors!

[Don Lacy]

Those eyes are killer and they glow against that BG, well done.

[Steve Maxson]

The sharp, colorful head really grabs your attention. Nice use of DOF and the pinkish background colors really makes the fly stand out. Well done.

Al, I'm going to start calling you "Lord of the Flies!" :D:):D

This is one of my favorites in your series. You talk about head angle and getting the focus right on the eyes in the ETL forum and you did precisely what you preach! Great angle for the fly to be going almost diagonal and the eyes and tip of the face are spot on.

Only drawback is that we only get to see one wing. Would be nice to have gotten a tip or slice of the other wing as well but...that said...I'd be proud to have this in my collection of images. Outstanding!

Perfect short DOF.Fantastic metallic face.
Very good,Al.
