JUST A COUPLE OF FLIES.

===================================================


Well finally the weather has become a bit better for a couple of days, so yesterday my wife and I went to Truro for a stroll around and give her a bit of retail therapy.
The afternoon was spent catching up with gardening chores, I wanted to get these out of the way to leave time to get out with the camera over the next few days.
The images below were taken in the late afternoon and I was expirimenting with some attachments to get the camera even closer to the subject.
These images have minimal cropping and are around 2-3 times life size.




Hoverfly (Episyrphus Balteatus ) 10-15mm



Hoverfly (Episyrphus Balteatus ) 10-15mm




Fly  (Poecilobothrus Nobilitatus ) 8mm

Found this one resting on my garden shed and realised I had not photographed it before.
