My brother the comedian again!! Great photo but ugly bug! :) I'm with Ann - if only!! But then I guess the roll was tastier. The wings do look like stained glass. Judith

One of our cats (Poppy) occasionally digs her claws in, with great passion, whilst purring her little heart out. It happened yesterday evening and I straight away thought of that blasted goldwinged blowfly. I'm grateful that it didn't lead to nightmares. Cheers to you my friend, take care.........Ray

I just love your humour Keith and the shot is, of course, first class. I am such a wimp regarding these insects and you can bet I would have let it take the roll as well. Better that than a whole arm. The details are amazing my friend and the tone in the wings awesome. Another great shot, well done to you. Cheers.......Ray

I love this little beastie, Keith. What fantastic wings. (Not quite as fantastic as your story,though) I would love to have this picture to play with with my magic filters.:)

Nice capture of this nasty guy, Keith! The wings look like stained glass. No you wouldn't want a K10 stuck anywhere! Dave.

Was true Dan. They would have been there somewhere when you were there. Usually on one of the walls where you go out to the boats. Fast exit for them i guess. They really were the size of a dinner plate. Can tell by the size of the grain in the wall if you look close. Those ice pick shaped feet looked deadly :))) Have fun. Keith

Lol. Thankyou Nicki. Im sure you would have seen them when you were there. Usually sitting on one of the walls by the water side exit doors. Guess it was easier for them to fly out the door there if they felt threatened :))))) Have a good day. Hugs. Keith

Wow and what a story that was too. A bit glad that I never met one of these when I was there over the Christmas and news years break. I wish I was as big and brave as you Keith It is such an ugly looking thing, but those wings look just amazing, like on of those stained glass windows. Amazing shot, not so sure this was a macro ;-), great details captured. I just googled this thing and top of the list is your picture here on usefilm ;-).
