Hiding in a walnut tree This fly (very likely of the species Calliphora vicina) sat in the shade on a young walnut tree. Contrast and light were very poor, so I used the latest in macro photography high tech gear: A mini LED-torch... Brachycera,Calliphora vicina,Fly,Geotagged,Germany,Macro,insect Click/tap to enlarge

    As we say in the Netherlands:
    You row with the oars you actually have [NL, poor translation:)]
    One must make shift with what one has [UK]).
    Or how about this one:
    If you are given lemons, make lemonade [US]
    So you did a marvellous job. Without your diodes you wouldn't have had a picture at all, and we would not have seen your shaded fly. It creates a bit of a golden shine.

    BTW. Yours is a humorous description, I like it:)     Posted 13 years ago, modified 13 years ago
