I thought the male was the one with the smile on his face. :rolleyes: Great technique as always David.

Cheers John, here's me thinking he was doing something right and it was her smiling:D

Hi David, sharp detail! Somehow it seems like it would be more natural if the image was rotated 90° CCW?

Cheers Frank, the Fly's were actually upside-down :eek: I tried your suggestion first, and don't think it looks right, that's why I went for the vertical look ;) But just for you:)

What do you think? there is not enough room in the frame to rotate the image to straighten it up without losing part of the feet!:(

Cheers David

I see what you mean. You were correct. Somehow it borders on the obscene in this orientation!

I agree Frank, after all this is a family forum:D

Hi Izzie, it is hard to tell from that angle but male Fly eyes meet at the top, where as the female eyes are apart;) for me anyway this is the easiest way of telling them apart:)
