As disgusting as flies are, their eyes are so beautiful, and you captured it beautifully. The fuzz on it's legs, the lighting on it's eye. It's like it was just sitting there, striking a pose for you

Yes, robber flies are much more 'cute' than 'normal' house flies. They are also much calmer, so it is easier to get good picture.

Amazing! Did it waited for you or it was a "running" fast shot to capture it in good focus ?

It was waiting and spotting for its preys. These flies are easy to capture.

Wygląda jak taki poczciwy dziadunio...

Ale to bardzo złośliwy i dziki dziadunio Pozory mylą. Łowiki są wyjątkowo agresywnymi i sprawnymi łowcami. Chyba tylko ważki są bardziej niebezpiecznymi "myśliwcami" w świecie owadów.

Thank you
For "perfect" picture the model should have more light on its left side. I wasn't able to use two flashlights

If I see pictures like this I totally understand why aliens in movies look a lot like insects. Great
