Common flies

When I was a kid, we'd try to catch those green flies and then throw them into spider webs. (I know, we were mean, but it was cool). I don't think I'd want to touch that first one, though. He's disgusting looking. Ick!  

Great shots though!  

 

I agree...kinda reminds me of Jeff Goldblum in that movie "The Fly"....S-C-A-R-Y!!!!

But they are wonderful shots. Very sharp and vivid colors. Well done.

 

Fantastic pictures of a not so fantastic subject. Enough to make you skin crawl.

Yeuch, and well done !

 

Jerry the intracacies of insects has me intrigued. I am finding myself drawn to know more about them and to see them as you have presented them helps. Ever since I found an interest in trying to capture them with the camera the need to understand them has grown. Thanks for these.

Jerry,

Excellent captures. True, the subjects may be one of the least popular members of the insect species, but still well shot. 8)

 

Jerry,

These are fantastic! I am in the minority here. I think the first one is kind of cute (hairy little bugger) ...I have been watching way too many cartoons with my son! :lol:

 

Jerr, only you can make a fly Beautiful..

Super shots.

 

Jerry very good, you made great steps with your X in a short time, i guess the D70 isn't used has much now.

 

Wonderful shots Jerry, I really like the second one. It's so great that there are such talented people like you to show us such tiny details of things we would never notice.
