Thank you, the two shades of green tend to compliment each other.

Hi,
That is a good shot.
Is this your preferred macro lens? I am using a DA 15-45 for now, and am considering a "macro" lens.

Yes I'd certainly recommend the Sigma 105mm F2.8 Macro

One thing WA does well is flies. This is known as the "Disco Blowie", due to the gold and purple coloring. Nicely captured here.

Nicely done !
Did you use extension tubes on your macro lens ?

Drinks on the house - a good life, for sure.

Shoot is nice one but what is name of this fly.

Not sure of the technical name, we just call them green bottles, they are a blowfly.
