It takes a special soul to see the meaning here. My brother Rick and I kept a little bee alive one winter. We found it moving so slow in mid Nov and brought it into the garage, had a box for it and every day we fed it sugar water. In the spring we brought him out on the deck and it took several times doing this before he moved forward and flew off. The feeling I got seeing him fly was well worth that long winter.
I believe you & your brother are a shoein for heaven John!

Some might say this is just a too-centered image of a fly, but for me the whole composition projects a physical depth and a moodiness that I find very attractive. Even if this was just a spur of the moment "snapshot" for you and the composition is accidental, kudos for your "happy accident". It scores tops from me, but I suspect it won't score well with DPC voters overall - hopefully I will be wrong. Anyway, I like it very much. :)
