Macro photography - The common fly

in #photography9 months ago

I'm back with my extremely infrequent posts. I have recently been focusing on macro photography and here are some images I've taken of the common fly. These images were taken at the local park but they are everywhere.

And yet another fly on a leaf. It's a recurring theme.

I'm not sure if they are of the same species or not, they look the same. All images taken with a Nikon D7000 + Sigma 180mm macro + extension tubes. Edited and resized in darktable.
