[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
It is the same house fly I posted yesterday.
It is a male fly in view of the narrow gap between the eyes. In females, the gap is bigger.
I was trying to shoot some pigeons from the balcony of my son's apartment; there are quite a few in this locality in Sharjah. At that moment, this particular fly started hovering around me, showing a lot of interest in my camera. So when it settled down on an item of laundry drying on the clothes line, I shot this macro of it.
TFL.

Hi Ram,
Well, I guess the pidgeon would not co-operate then? shooting on the fly are you :)
Good detail, color, and exposure, with the burlap type weave adding interest..IMHO ;)
Well done and TFS!
