" Gold and Red "
Uploaded: July 23, 2007
This is a common house fly. I found him hanging around my garbage can. I was going to photograph him from a higher angle to capture the patterns in his back, but when I looked through the lense, to my supprise I saw what looked like gold leaf on his face. It may look different on your monitor. Sigma 28/70 lense reversed f/16 shutter 500. Tripod, remote and lots of light. I hope you like it, comments more than welcome.
Exif: Exposure Time: 1/60, Flash: 0, Camera Model: NIKON D70

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
The following truth is one of the core philosophies of BetterPhoto:
I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
