Those of you who LOVE my macro shots might want to know what was involved in this capture...
1- went to see if the tiny yellow blossoms in the flower heart were blooming...
2- saw this tiny little fly (think he's a fly... only two wings?) busily, greedily making the rounds of the blossoms and started snapping photos...
3- 93 clicks later... in the house... upload to computer... immediately delete 49 (blurry due to fly motion or my ineptitude)
4- cull remaining 44 photos for the best (IMHO) and flag 9 for possible posting...
5- edit (minor, to punch up detail in shadows) and crop and decide on 3 to post to Flickr (am getting ready to release other 2 for public view but MAY wait until tomorrow for those... OH the suspense!)
6- Voila... this one is my favorite so was put out for view on Flickr FIRST of the 93 snaps...

Amazing how much color there is on this little fly!
ReplyDeleteThis is a good macro! Looking forward to seeing the others.
ReplyDeleteJust a tip watch out for JPEG artifacting in your posting. If you hve photoshop you can try save for web as an easy solution. This is some times caused by making a smaller photo larger for web viewing.
