283/365 - Jim - Water Cooler for Flies

( f/8 200mm 1/320 sec ISO 200 Nikon D300 )
I walked out to just get some simple flower shots, but found some interesting bugs hanging out. These green flies look so cool on a daisy. Instead of using my macro lens, I thought I would try out my 70-200mm with the Canon 500D close-up lens on the front of it. Turned out pretty well but was pretty difficult to hand hold. A tripod might have been equally difficult to setup though.

Well I don't like flies but this photo make them look like a work of art, the flower color is such a brilliant yellow and you can even appreciate the a gentle green hue in the wings of the flies.
