Nice crisp image of what I assume is a type of green-bottle blowfly. The bristles (everywhere) show sharp and free of fringing or artifacting and the fly contrasts well against the pink petals. Even the bristles on the tiny, plumose arista at the end of the antenna shows quite clearly.

I like the angle of the picture, more horizontal than normal, like a flies eye view. :wink:
