Cheers Guys. I have heaps of fly shots, but that one is probably my favourite.

Good fly shot. But it's not Louie

Thanks Mark, but I gotta ask. Where's Louie ?

[Ironwood]

Are either of these ones Louie ?

[MarkB1]

Ha, looks like a Louie with wings and hair an all but - http://www.mortein.com.au/louie_the_fly.php

Yeah, mine dont quite come up to the real Louie's standard. I'll just have to keep looking, one day I'll find him

Amazing how different they look close up, almost nice ...... and yet we still continue to 'smack them into oblivion'

[Ironwood]

They do look differently don't they, not quite the pesky buggers they really are. Here is another one I took today. The first pic has the focus pane on the closest parts of the fly. The 2nd pic has the focus pane a bit further in. Which one do you prefer ?

#1 ..... as you don't have to 'step over' the blur to 'see' the focal point

Sorry its taken me a while to get back to this.
Yes, you are right, the first one is more pleasing to look at.
