eeeewwwww!!! Yuck! I dislike flies on flowers. I wish I could reach in (or out) and pluck it off! Nice macro, btw
Mary MacADNski: Just blow it off.
The fly looks as if it is wearing shiny metal armor.
Mary MacADNski: I can see his big bug eyes too.
this is too nice.
Mary MacADNski: You're too nice.
Great macro shot, Mary. Beautiful flower too...
Mary MacADNski: The fourth photo I put on SC was also a macro of a calendula. I entered it in Sunday's photo meme for macros and it wasn't accepted as a macro.

nice job capturing the bug so well.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Jim. He happened onto the flower as I snapped. Purely accidental.
I love how the center of the flower is still unfolding, Mary. And one thing to say about the fly is that it gives scale to the size of the flower!
Mary MacADNski: I love calendula. They're edible and that's why I grow them.
Beautiful uplifting yellow, and excellent detail on the flower centre and fly. (:o)
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Rosalyn.
The fly does scale the flower. Great shot and clarity.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Louis.
Beautiful capture of the bloom, Mary. The garden fly is a bonus.
Mary MacADNski: The fly flew in at the last moment.
Great shot Mary
Mary MacADNski: It was pretty easy, Aussie
Bravo Mary, I like this one very much and the details are very sharp !
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Zebigleb.
Awesome Mary
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Tracy. You're too kind.
A real feelgood sunshine shot. Well captured. The fly makes it! All the best, Dave.
Mary MacADNski: The fly just happened by at the last moment.
