Flowers or flowers are a means of sexual reproduction in flowering plants. In flowers there are reproductive organs, namely stamens and pistils. Flowers can appear singly or together in a series.

Flowers that appear together are called compound flowers or inflorescences. The function of flowers is to attract pollinators to plants to help fertilization so that plants create seeds. Bright colors, strong scents and sweet nectar all work together to attract birds, bees and other insects to transfer pollen from one flower to another.

Symbiosis is the interaction between one living thing with another. One such interaction is flies with white roses.

The interaction that occurs is symbiotic mutualism, which is a symbiosis of two living things that benefit each other. In this relationship, the fly is not the only party who benefits from the nectar obtained from the flower, but the flower also benefits, namely the fly can help pollinate the flower. The feature of the fly beetle in the photo is its black body color with yellow variations on the thorax.

The process of taking this photo is very simple using a smartphone and I use a tool with a macro lens.

I use a macro lens because the object I take has a small size, so if I use a regular smartphone, the results are blurry and unsatisfactory.

That's why I use a macro lens so that the picture is good and can focus on the small object that we are photography.
