Hoverfly on Daylily Bud

previous / next (7-1-10)

This macro was taken in my garden. The hoverfly is a teeny tiny critter and it was a little windy which made getting this shot a challenge. It took a while to get a clean in-focus shot but patience and co-operation from the little fly paid off.

Nikon D700
Nikkor 60mm f/2.8 micro/macro
