You can see how small this is, because it is sitting on one tiny fruit of a dogwood shrub.

Superbe macro, c' est la première fois que je vois une mouche avec de pareilles couleurs.

Another fine catch, Christine.
Nicely framed, too.

This is incredible detail. I have gotten fruit flies, albeit probably not this kind, in my house and they are mere specks. V.
