New insects spotted on my potted orchid plant outside my house.
Sadly, they left after camping there for a few days.
After taking the pictures of the fly, I couldn't stop thinking about how can something so small be so detailed and how did it evolve to become the tiny fly it is now. I wonder in awe of how each and every micro-detail of the fly is there for a specific purpose.
Though I am not a believer, I find myself saying that I appreciate "His" creations.
We, humans, can create nanotechnology, produce silicon chips with micron precision... but look at the intricacy of the details of the smallest insects, we know we can never climb the Tower of Babel and be His equal.
Tip :
My preferred aperture for sharper macro shots is at f16. I was using f11 previously as recommended by many experienced macro photographers but the Depth-Of-Field (DOF) was too shallow for me to appreciate.
To prevent underexposure and shutter shadows, I now use a shutter of 1/125 or 1/160 instead of 1/200 and 1/250.

| Should I have little bubble thoughts added into the picture? |

| It looks like it is in deep thought |

| I simple adore compound eyes! |
