  1. It's a fly, Katherine. Even with bits of Jeff Goldblum, it's still a fly.

    Oooh, it's a beeeyoootful Greenbottle! I love it. Gorgeous photo!

    I've never been able to capture one of those, they fly away too fast, usually.

  7. Wow...I've never looked at a fly quite like this before. I'm curious as to the type of lens you used.

  8. Sam, I used a 100x zoom, bright light, lots of pixels, then cropped it closely. You can't get too close to those fellas as they zoom away...
    I have a Canon EOS 400D.
