Here is a superb fly portrait, details are impressive, sharpness on the eyes is impeccable. The colors are natural and the depth of field is very good. Very good job.

Photographers Comment

Red. Place: Stara Tura, lake Dubnik Slawakia Canon 7D+ canon mp-e 65 1-5x By the macro-photography are the eyes of the insects the most interesting for me. That is why I wanted to make a natural photo of the red eyes fly with contrast of defokusing grass . I had been concentrated at the "honeycomb pattern" in the eyes. I use Photoshop for better DOF (depth of focus) - that is the biggest problem by macro-photography. While the DOF is very small, I am always trying to make two or more shoots with a different DOF. I am using stacking and sharpening in Photoshop.
