Excellent photo! Great details and color in both the flies, and the carrion flower. This phenomenal macro photo inspired me to Google the carrion flower because I didn't know what it was, and it looks very interesting! Very cool! Thank you for sharing.

When it comes to aromas, to each his own. A very nicely composed shot with great details in the flies as well as the flower. A great shot with a very good story behind it. Best of luck in the contest.

This is an interesting close-up shot of nature. You have framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good luck in the contest!

Nice shot with an interesting story. I have grown similar plants and I can see how they would be an appetite suppressant. Good color, focus and sharpness in this shot. Good luck in the contest.

Fred,
A beautiful picture of this pair of green iridescent Blow Flies in the centre of the foul smelling Stapelia gigantea. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

WOW I feel this week I need a bag full of golden stars - this one deserves one too - excellent capture , fantastic view point - looking down into a different world -
your shot is hyper clear and sharp, fantastic in focus point contrast and lighting, perfect exposure and genuine color saturation - a really interesting picture, with great initial impact

Quite a good entry into the competition posted here! Your fine off-centre composition gives us an enjoyable look at that crowded and busy scene. Sharpness and exposure are good. Well done and good luck!
