Clever, clever. I guess this one landed in foul territory. John

This one made my day! Thanks for the chuckle and for sharing this wonderfully realized photo, too (may the fly rest in peace!)~
Cheers!

I can't imagine anyone viewing this one without grinning... and such image quality, too! Well done, indeed, Deb!

Well - that should be "classic". Bev

I don't know which is most fun, Deb - your photography or your comments. This one's a clasic! Great lighting, frame - and placement of the model. Bev

Thanks for the comments, Helen and MFC. I'm glad you liked the shot. I can take credit for only the photography, as a good friend of mine suggested the idea. Helen, I'm sorry to say this fly gave its life in the name of photography. I used a towel, rather than a swatter, to do the deed.---Deb

Nice lighting, clarity, and composition, Deb. I especially like the iridescence you captured on the fly's body. The central placement of the fly and ball gives even more prominence to the fly here...like a star performer on stage. Really clever and well done, Deb. MFC

What a great idea and title, Deb! And perfectly lit and composed. Did you get him to pose for you :-)? Helen
