They met at the same exhibition more than a century ago and never quit themselves.
They faced the years together ever since.
The Clyde Auditorium, affectionately known as "The Armadillo", is a concert venue and auditorium in Glasgow, Scotland. The building sits on the site of the now infilled Queen's Dock on the River Clyde, adjacent to the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre. Often likened to the Sydney opera house in Australia, this wasn't the inspiration behind the design in fact it was a series of Interlocking ship hulls in reference to the Clyde' shipbuilding heritage

A bright metallic green fly. It's a long-legged fly I think. (Sci name) is staring at his own reflection in a drop of water on this scorchingly yellow flower petal.

I, a bit half-heartedly, tried to find out what species this is, but was unsuccessful, so feel free to let me know, if you do. 🐞
Apparently there is a whole army of metallic beetles out there, in all sorts of colors, shapes and sizes. Fascinating! I like these with the green-ish mini tiles a lot, don't see them too often though. But usually near areas where the "rainbow beetles" are.
This one had its wings already hanging out the backside, but for some reason decided not to fly off and escape, but instead to do a little photo shoot with me, and our viewing pleasure now, I hope.
Edit: Well, it's of the genus Phyllobius it think, which has a ton of subspecies, maybe Phyllobius glaucus, or arborator..? 😋 Cheers.

In the night, after all of us have fallen deep a sleep, they come in numbers to inquire what us humans have really been up to. They come in these cool looking metallic space balls. See the alien sticking it's head out? It's there...look!
Part of my industrial night shot series.
Still can't find that alien dude? Well check the larger version on black

I was surprised to find a wide variety of insects, including this bronze metallic sweat bee visiting my chrysanthemums on a warm day after our first frost
