Really like that view of the power line. Unusual but effective

Thanks Lawrence.

Great looking up shot. Interesting where we can find beauty that we didn't know existed.

Yes, unfortunately it was me. My work has me up and about at that time 6 days a week.

Cheers Mike.
C'mon Mate the more flies the merrier :very_drunk:.
There are plenty of different ways to interpret "Fly" for a photo, but this is the only way I would have done it.

I reckon they would be the fastest fly in the world. Anything that can beat the flash and camera shutter has got to be damn quick .

Actually, I was remembering that photo when I was trying to get a good shot of this fly. Out of about 20 shots, only 2 had the whole fly in the frame, some had no sign of the fly at all .
I think an in flight shot of one of these flies would be a once in a lifetime thing.

Week 8 - Leaves.

I dug out my old Nikon AF55D f2.8 macro for this shot.

Week 9 - Chairs and benches.

The treehuggers bench.
I am not completely happy with this shot, but I don't have the chance to go back and re-shoot it right now.
The highlights are blown-out in the background, it was bright midday sun, and very shaded under the tree.

Good shot, I like it because it leaves you wondering about the rest of the tree, and how big it really is.
