' You lookin at me, eh? '
Hi all !
Can i firstly thank Geetee50 here on Flickr ; www.flickr.com/photos/58717664@N08/
He kindly sold me a microscope objective and a stacking rail and they are perfect and work superbly as you can see above !
Now, for the past few weeks i've hardened my search for a Horse fly as i have never actually seen one in the flesh and have been looking for one for a long time. On a trip to Delamere which some of you may know about, with my bud Michael, we got some really nice landscape shots and other animal photos i may share in the near future, but no horse flies anywhere.
After a while we ended up on a field of sheep, while walking along i noticed some weird looking flies on the dung of the sheep, after 2 attempts i caught this one and when i got home i went to work getting 120 images, in total, to stack. Although i have not bought Zerene stacker due to lack of funds i tried Photoshop, and after a very long wait the outcome was good enough to post for Flickr ( some touching up was necessary )
All in all i was disappointed in not finding a Horse fly but i was happy to use my new equipment for the stack and i want to share the setup i use as it is very efficient and took a week to get it perfect to ensure each photo was in good alignment for a stack.

If anyone knows the species or the name of this fly give me a shout, cheers everyone.
