I took this last week when the weather was good.

I love the colours, but unfortunately the focus is off and it's behind the wing area rather than the eye. What's the shutter speed?

I agree, focus is in the middle and back of the fly, it would have been better on the eyes and head. Great angle though John.

Thanks Sarah, I agree your right the shutter speed was iso 400 with a F11 bit slow really cheers.

Cheers Alby, I agree shutter speed was a bit slow for the light at iso 400 should have used 800 cheers.

Nice composition to this shot John, It's only the focus a little off and you would have nailed it!
What lens were you using John?

Tony.
