Well done. Sharp. Loverly colors. And your title made me chuckle! I would not mind a version without the shy fly....

Great image. I did a double-take, thinking there was a mirror involved until my eye resolved the details. I tend to agree with Artie that the foreground fly is so beautifully focused, and so obviously the subject; the picture might be even better with him alone. Great bg and color, and I love the sharp detail of the fly against the subtle fade to oof.
I have to agree with Artie and Ron; while the image has an amusing edge with both flies present, I think it's a much stronger image with the "shy" fly evicted...great color, great sharpness, great BG, great composition...all without needing the fly in the background. Great capture!
Hi Rohan. Your title does fit the image very well. Beautiful light, colors, and sharpness. As presented, this is a strong image - without the second fly, this becomes an outstanding image! Keep them coming!
Hi Rohan, I tried cloning out the second fly and it did look good but I also like your post with the second fly, especially with your title.
I think the 2 fly version would look better with a little more canvas on the right side.
