Artist's Comments
This pic shows Dioctria atricapilla. In Germany it is called Black Robber Fly, but I did'nt find an english name for it.
When I took this photo the sun had just disappeared beyond the horizon and so exposure time was very long (5 sec). One out of approx. 15 pics was sharp the others were blurred due to a moderate breeze.
All I can say is . I *love* the clarity of this picture. Thank you for taking the time to develop such skill at macro photography, and for illustrating how beautiful insects can be!
Beautiful portrait. Love the colors and composition. Very well done.

Tut leid, aber ich muss schon wieder drücken. Ist einfach zu hübsch mit den blauen Augen. Und ich muss dauernd an den Clapton-Song desselben Titels denken.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant.
