My goodness. Your last three shots have been most impressive. I think you've found your niche'! ;) And, no. That's not saying anything against any other style you've achieved.

They use this fly to lower air-conditioning units down onto rooftops .. yes? ... That is why the shot is so clear? .. because it is big, holds a crew of 8? .. the door is on the other side?

if it is, as you claim, a fly ... you got it drunk? ... had your way with it? .. took pictures while it was unable to complain, take flight?

forgive my questions .. I'm just trying to learn from the master ... you do some amazing work

Boy that is one close fly. I hope you got this thing's first name, one should always get the first name of something you get this intimate with, right? It is perfect, nature is completely amazing and mysterious and you catpured that reality quite well here. I have set it as my desktop background and every few minutes I keep closing all my windows to try to study this insect, it is very engaging!
