Wonderful observation! Perhaps a little different crop would make this even better.

EDIT: I made a note for alternative crop suggestion. Please go ahead and remove it if you find it annoying. So, cropping it to square AND then also rotate 90 degrees left is my suggestion.

I love reading Sami's suggestions as they make you think just that little bit more.

I think the shot is superb, but would also like to see it after you have played around with a crop.

Sun bathing fly! Nice catch.Agree about some cropping may make the photo much better

I like it, something sort of voyeuristic about the fly not knowing you're there

What an amazing scene. I like Sami's crop idea, but I think I prefer your original. I don't know, both are so interesting.

Wow, the fly is fabulous! I agree about the crop, it concentrates the eye on the most striking bits.
