Macro insect photography is actually one of the best photography because it brings one focus back while capturing. I have personally discovered some hacks due to macro photography. Photography really needs timing, focus and patience to capture extraordinary slides.

Macro insect photography unraveled deep hacks that I didn't know while taking portrait or street photography. Today, I captured an House fly which seems to be one of my toughest macro insect adventure.

Let's Get To Know More About This Very Insect

An housefly is known to be one of the commonest insects here in my locality. Housefly stay in damp, waste foods, decayed matter and other unwanted materials. The scientific name for housefly is musca domestica

It has two pairs of wings with round compound eyes that gives a wider range view. An housefly feeds mainly on refuses, damps, sugar materials, faces and decayed matter.

It's commonly seen feeding more on feces over here while using its saliva to dissolve it before sucking. A little suck on your food from the housefly can totally contaminate your food and make in unsafe for consumption.

Houseflies reproduce easily, that's laying about 100 eggs at a time on unwanted materials mostly faeces. After completing proper life cycle, the housefly then stays for about 2 to 4 weeks.

Houseflies are harmful and somehow important in the ecosystem.

Houseflies are majorly disease carriers, causing cholera and diarrhea. Apart from being harmful to humans it helps complete some cycle which is breaking down some organic materials.

Taking the photo wasn't that add with my RedmiNote13 smartphone I did my little hack by moving slowly while focusing more on the subject. The zoom tool also played a bigger role. Thanks for going through my post

The video was also incorporated into the map

You've managed to vindicate the housefly as a very special insect.
The description is friendly and familiar. There was a confusion between the order: Insecta and the Class: Diptera. I notice you don't include the references you consulted or the coordinates.

The photos are masterful, well done. Although in my opinion, you applied a lot of sharpness. The video is dedicated to the fly and not to other topics.

This fly is our common pest and vector. It carries so many diseases.

Yeah very very
...I hate seeing it around
