Fly On My Wall 10_26_05.jpg

How often have you heard, "I wish I was a fly on the wall when..."? I know I think that often. I'm guessing the fly hasn't ever wished that it could trade places with us.

Anyway...here is a "Fly On My Wall". I'm guessing he is pretty bored. What does the fly on your wall think of your life?

Canon EOS 20D ,Tamron SP AF 180mm f/3.5 Di Macro
1/250s f/7.1 at 180.0mm iso200 with Flash full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

LOL John...he knew where Wanda was...she was holding the flash. Plus, he saw what she was or should I say wasn't wearing ;^)

Just being cheeky here, but I'll bet that fly is thinking "where's Wanda". John

"what does the fly on your wall think...? " asks Bill. If I were the fly, my thoughts would be along the lines of , "I'm in this room with a creature weighing perhaps 10,000 times as much as I do, and he's not particularly fussy about whether I live or die, or how I die." I'd be looking for a way out of the room; not posing for a portrait.

A beautiful shot of a strangely beautiful creature.
The only one that I will go out of my way to kill.

This is not an easy task. I sat for over 45 minutes on this onehttp://www.pbase.com/gpaai/image/39798442

Great job Bill!
