Uninvited guest
This might look like a digital creation, but it really is a photograph. The fly is resting on the fluorescent light fixture in my kitchen; I stood underneath and aimed straight up.
I totally didn't expect the image I got. The fixture casts a shadow on my off-white ceiling for an inch or two on either side. With the exposure set for the bright light, that shaded area turned into that black strip on the left, and the textured cover of the fixture developed into a bold geometric pattern.
The original image was rather yellow, so I corrected that and cropped in a bit. I did no other post processing.
