Hi Haraprasan . Yes it is a large one. Which you have taken a fine macro. With a good top POV so we can see all of the body markings. The large eyes stand out . all with natural looking colours. well done TFS.

Hello Haraprasan,
As I’m just back from a trip to see my son and two grand-daughters my critiques replies are delayed.
An excellent capture of what I think is the male of a species of Horse Fly
+: Sharpness, DOF, pose, POV, BG, composition, colours and lighting.
-: none, though the BG lacks contrast but that can't be helped.
Thanks and best regards,
Ivan

hello Haraprasan,
Again an excellent shot of a Tabanidae-fly. Amazing to see these big spotted eyes! Very harmonious colors all in brown tints. Our Tabanidae have sometimes great green eyes.
Kind regards

Hallo Haraprasan
The detail captured on this fly is really great. The focus as well as the sharpness and composition are just right. It is a favourable sight looking at this fly from above. This way one can see its whole profile, body and wing structure and the detail in its beautiful eyes. I really like the light caught in the middle of the thorax, reflecting back to the viewer’s eye, and the details seen of the different segments of the body. Thanks for sharing. Best regards from a very cold South-Africa.

Hello Haraprasan!
Very interesting creature this time! This fly has so big head that it is difficult to believe that it can normally fly! :>
Very interesting and educative presentation :)
All the best,
