Green Bottle Fly

[mjhoward]

Well here's my first Macro photo I'll be submitting for view on TPF. I'm still pretty new at this but I believe I'm improving. This was taken handheld with an SB-600 and a primitive diffuser (I know there are a couple of small hot spots on the flies back). I'll be working a bit more on a better lighting setup for macro, especially handheld, soon. I believe Flickr has over-sharpened this photo a little, I had it looking more subtle but oh well. Here she is:

C&C if you like.
