I love how (crow-like) pitch black they are around here! Like i told John, our flies are king-sized here but the brains of our politicians are small. 🙂
Thanks much, Andy! 🙂 I took this one months ago so am not exactly sure which camera and lens was used but “eye” am pretty sure it was a Zuiko 60mm Macro lens on an Olympus E-M1 Mark 2 camera.
They sure do Tom, and that horsefly’s eye sure reminded me of the little perforations you see on a speaker. Remember our first speakers on computers that sat out on left and right? I don’t use a desktop, just a laptop, so I don’t know if the speakers still look like that.
Gaze into my eye eye eye eye eyes…
The more the better… kind of! 🙂
Ay-ay!
So much and so many can indeed be seen by lenses…beautiful Tom.
Yes, multiple things (in all of the oneness)! 🙂
Wow, that is a pretty amazing photo. And the thought you have paired with it, so apt.
Thank you, ESA!… eye appreciate that! 🙂
Hehe, cute! 🙂
The committee met, took a vote, and agreed: the eyes have it!
Eye like that, Linda! 🙂
What a beautiful being – great photo Tom.
Eye agree (though many people wouldn’t)! 🙂
You just have to take the time to get to know them beyond what we are taught to think.
Gosh what a great photo! 🙂
Many look but do not see.
Yes, many look without really seeing! … which isn’t real seeing at all! 🙂
Wow! Never seen it so detailed. Great picture!😊
Thanks much, John! Our flies are king-sized here, but the brains of our politicians are small. 🙂
Just like in Sweden then!😁😁😁
Looks like an electronic/led field.
Yes, Jim, all wired and ready to fire away to the synapses! 🙂
I had no idea a horse fly could be so beautiful! I need to learn to look deeper.

fantastic macro picture as always – cam I ask what lens set up you use Tom?

Great marriage of words and picture. Thought provoking too.
Thank you, Sebby! Eye appreciate that! 🙂
I see….very clever 🤣🤣
WOW! What a mindblowing closeup! 🙂
Thanks much, Kym! 🙂
Beautiful and amazing macro Tom! 🙂
Much appreciated, Marcela! 🙂
Beautiful image of a horsefly eye but man do their bites hurt. Yowee!
They love meat like a lot of people do! 🙂
Very clever use of the word lenses for your eyes and the horsefly’s eyes … meanwhile, that eye looks like a close-up of a speaker!
Thanks, Linda! All those lenses equal pretty darn good eyesight! 🙂

Nice work Tom
Incredible macro shot Tom!
WOW, awesome shot, Tom!
