Description
A Grey Striped Fly also know as a Flesh fly.LOL! It seems rather surprising that a creature with such unsavoury dining preferences and table manners, would have a face of gold.

I don't care what anyone else says - flies are just amazing. Beautiful to photograph, fantastic flyers and very complex, and necessary insects.
I'm chuffed I'm not the only who likes them, or photographs them (I just haven't up;loaded mine et).

Thanks.
They are a fairly common subject for macrophoto buffs.
Of course, the term "fly" covers so many types:
from common house & bottles [link] [link] [link]
predators [link]
and ones that bite [link]
mimics [link] [link]
to more exotic & specialized designs [link] [link] [link] [link] [link]

Cool close up Jim!
Yeah it's funny but most of the flies and other small bugs are really neat looking when seen in the Macro mode. They have traits that go unnoticed because of their size.

Yep, lots of odd stuff from strange bumps and odd projections to widely diveted surfaces remincent of a golfball.
