This is truly a unique Hoverfly, Peter.
Look at its long snout; must be useful in getting deeper in to flower.
Splendid macro capture with perfect focus on the entire insect.
TFS and regards.

Excelentes detalles sobre todo en la cabeza del insecto con naturalidad del color en toda la toma y brillos bien captados en algunos puntos. Ligeramente falta de profundidad,.
Un buen trabajo.

Hello Peter,
A macro with a lot of information.
Well composed. Cloudy but the available light was definitely there if you take into account the exposure settings and ISO.

Hi Peter.
Brilliant 3D-image of a cute fly. All is impressive at highest range: details and sharpness, lights and colours, DOF and blurriness of the BG, POV and composition. Bravo, Superb macro work.

Hi Peter!

Agree, very strange looking fly. Horned one, it remainds some kind of rhino. Perfect capture with superb details and side POV.

Hallo Peter,
wirklich tolles Portrait der doch recht winzigen Fliege (ich habe mich an ihr auch geübt), alles ist so detailliert, jedes Härchen zu sehen. Die Funktion der auffälligen Schnauze ist mir immer noch nicht klar. Das Bild ist herrlich anzusehen.
Ich wünsche Dir noch eine gute Nacht,
Dieter
