Hello to all;
Above all I wish to say " BRAVO LES BLEUS " for their match of yesterday against the BLACK.
Seriously here is another recording of the garden of my parents, this time a colored fly gift I do not know ID.
Have a nice day

Hi Gaetan,
You certainly have the knack for macro photography. A well cploured, good definition and sharp photo of the fly. Just a pity it is not facing the camera more.
Regards,
Peter.

Hi Gaetan,
a lovely post, I like the fly on the peppermint-bloom and it's nice to see another at the other side. Thanks and greetings

Dear Gaetan!
It was long ago when I visited your gallery last time but finaly I am here again :)
Flies are not very popular object of photography here on TN (except maybe two families: Syrphidae and Asilidae) so at first: many thanks for this non-commercial photo :)
But according to technique I have to add some more words: I like composition - its is asymetric but very good for watching. Also details and BG are great (moreover thanks to delicate BG the object is perfectly presented).
According to the ID I can only say that it is probably fly from Tachinidae or Muscidae falimies, but nothing more as for now :)
TFS and my best regards,
Radomir

terrific macro btw. the fly is perfectly captured, razorsharp, and well composed with it sitting on the pretty flower.

Hi Gaetan,

A wonderful macro of this fly showing every detail clearly. Beautiful colors and a wonderful background. The composition is superb! I like the positioning in the lower corner and the part of a flower showing in the opposite upper corner. Beautiful!

Bonjur Gaétan,
Comme d'habitude, c'est une macro bien composée et détaillée que tu nous présente. Les teintes de couleurs sont très belles et j'aime particulièrement ce beau background pastel. Bien vu!
Claudine

salut gaetan
c'est peut etre une graphomya maculata mais je n'en suis pas sûr.
l'image est tres belle,c'est nette sur le sujet et flou sur le BG.
j'airais surprimé la partie de fleur en haut a gauche.

Hello Gaetan,
Very fine macro of this fly in a beautiful composition. I love the colour of the background and the space as well as the few petals of the flower you've left in the top corner. Well done!
TFS and regards, Ulla

Hi Gaetan, wonderful fly, great composition with splendid colors, excellent sharpness and superb details, very well done, ciao Silvio

Magnifique, composition extraordinaire, couleurs et détails superbes.

Bonjour Gaetan,

Très jolie composition avec un excellent focus sur la mouche.Ce n'est pas une bebête que j'aime particulièrement mais tu as réussi à en faire l'ingrédient d'une image délicate et joliment colorée.

Super le match! ( à part la première demie heure)

Bonjour Gaetan, ce n'est qu'une mouche, mais la mise en boite est réussie!! et particulièrement ce qui m'attire le regard c'est la légèreté des pistils et la fragilité des pattes de l'insecte sur lesquels elles prennent appui, le tout associé au contraste de teintes!! le rappel des fleurs dans le coin ne me gêne pas. Bonne journée, Didier.
