23rd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Wildlife
Front Portrait of a hoverfly

I love capturing the compound eyes of fly - especially as they have so much interesting details around it. I spotted this hover fly in a biodiversity park on a cold early morning. This meant that the fly was not too active. As it sat there, waiting for sun to come out to warm it up, I was able to capture this front portrait of the fly !
