[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I tried to find a butterfly near my home, but they didn't want to show themselves at the day.
While looking I saw this bug, I think that it belongs to the Syrphinae family (you are invited to correct me), it hoovered there in the field, so I tried to catch him in flight, it wasn't an easy task at all, but I managed to catch few descent frames.
I hope that you will enjoy looking.

Hi David,
Wow, great photo. Very clear of the eyes. I think the color of the fly and BG match perfectly. Not to mention a very good timing.

Lovely lighting.
Brilliant BG.

Very good shot from a very skilled photographer.

dang, not often I see someone capturing a bug in mid flight, you must have a really fast lens. Great focus and detail

Terrific eyes Elroyie!
Enjoyed the visit :)
