Simply beautiful, Gert! You must love your Sigma 180 Macro (enables you to stay farther from the subject, even more with your 1.4X converter). So the FOV is great. Love the color and sharpness. As always, great work!

The sharpness on the eyes is great. Colours of the fly and flowers gives impact to this shot.

Very nice attention, Gert, because this is a really good macro you went to dig into your archives. Seems as if you were saving it for an important event :-). This is a beautiful addition to the hoverflies family, and a starter plate before next spring. A perfect shot.

An excellent macro, Gert. I have put a UFO too for Paul today. We give him work.
F/11: Impossible for my S1. I am looking for a new close-up lens.
Thanks a lot for sharing.

The color and sharpness, combined with the superb DOF makes for a winner.

Very well done and thanks for posting.
