This is a detailed macro shot of a common green bottle fly (Lucilia sericata) perched on a flower. The fly's body shimmers with metallic green and bronze tones under the bright light. Its large, reddish-brown compound eyes are prominent, and its delicate, transparent wings are folded over its back. It is resting on the vibrant yellow disc florets in the center of a white flower, possibly a daisy or chamomile. The white petals of the flower are soft and slightly curled, framing the scene. The background is a smooth, out-of-focus green, which makes the subject stand out. The image captures a quiet moment in nature, highlighting the intricate beauty of the insect. The overall emotion is one of fascination with the natural world. Copyright by Hans Enderl.
