This is one of my favorite old Kodachrome shots I took years ago of a Syrphid Fly.
Canon F-1, 1/60s f16 w/flash.

Great to have you dig into the chrome archives for this image, Bill. I love the colors and the excellent view of the transparent wing structure. Very nice job of processing this Kodachrome transparency.

I like the lighting and the delicate detail in the wings. Great pov as well, nice to look down on the open wings and the banding in the body.

Momma, don't take my Kodachrome away! Getting nostalgic, but color photography is a lot easier now that we don't have to shoot at ASA (ISO) 25 or 64! I can see why this is a favorite. The detail is nice, and that pink wash from the petals makes this beautifully unique.

Great POV of the flower fly, I especially like those wings Bill.
I agree with Scott, nice job of converting this to digital.
Well done!
