Surprise Ending

RogersDA

Shooting this fly this afternoon. He was very well behaved. Not up to Brian's quality, but wow was I in the groove with this guy. I had dreams of becoming the Bug Whisperer II.

1. Hanging on a stem.

2. A bit closer.

3. A differerent angle.

4. Even closer.

5. Surprise - you're someone's lunch.

Very good shots, you'll catch up to Lord and Dalan in no time. I think may be more sharpening will bring up more details, just my 2 cents.

Lord Vetinari

Excellent series , lovely detail.
So was the fly actually dead ?

Brian V.

I like the first image best!

Was it actually dead, or did it just get careless?

P.S. The eyes are dirty, so it very well could have been dead. Most critters are very meticulous at keeping their peepers clean...

Thanks for the comments, everyone.

Yeah, these could have been sharper I think.

And, this guy was dead. Something must have done him in to just go while sitting and hanging onto a stem like that.

I really had no idea this guy passed until the ant showed up and started snacking.

I'm wondering if the fly was already dead too
Did you whisper to him a little too hard .... just joking
... ya frightened him to death hehehe.

A very good series, you did a great job on these ....Skippy
