That fly has no legs. Did you chop them off and glue it on your nose? 8 marbo

Don't know how you got the shot before he flew off unless he's pasted on. If that's what it is, it is still good shot. Look at that strawberry nose. Wish the eye had been a little sharper. This one looks clearer in the thumbnail. Still a 7. Way to go. PTL See it with the fly as the subject. How about an 8

awesome shot but the expression of the eye looks artificial to me. 8 wingy

The focus on the fly is very nice. I'm not sure exactly what the object is that the fly is sitting on. My first instinct tells me that it's a nose, but then if it is, the angle makes the eye look like it's sunk unnaturally way back into the face. The shot is confusing to me. the lighting on the subject, and focus are both good though. Good luck in the challenge. ~Hbunch7187~
