A bit of compression ruined it a bit.

Love macro :)


Only thing is I think the shot would be even better if you crop it a bit to make the fly bigger.  8-)

Canon 60 mm Macro lens f/2.8 shutter speed somewhere around 60 if I remember correctly ISO 100.


Simple settings and techniques. ;)

Not an every day photographic subject, but a great shot. Surprised the fly let you get that close.

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
