Hoover fly on a leaf

By RTDS
This picture i took yesterday of an Hoover fly.
It was not easy to get some shots of him since he wasn't staying still for a second!
This was one of the best captures i got..a decent pic i guess.
Thanks again for all the nice compliments/comments and votes.
Hope you all will have a great day.
Robert

I love the idea of a Hoover fly but I guess the manufacturers might not. Lovely shot of one of my favourite subjects.

Great photo. I would take out the blurry leaf to the left and make that background all black though.
