Perspectives on Nature Photography
On a Clematis drummondii plant near the one shown in yesterday’s picture I noticed a tiny dark fly, perhaps a quarter of an inch long, on one strand. It held its position for some time, so I was able to take pictures from different angles. Click for more detail.

Thank you. I’m sorry that Clematis drummondii doesn’t climb up to Canada so you can see it.

Me too: I’m glad that the tiny fly was so obliging.

And thanks all around. As many times as I’ve photographed Clematis drummondii, I can’t recall seeing many insects on one, so I’m grateful for this tiny fly.
