Picture-winged flies

[GardenersHelper]

These were captured hand-held in our garden a few days ago with a Raynox 250 on a small (1/2.3") sensor Panasonic FZ330 bridge camera with a Venus Optics KX800 twin flash. The raw files were processed in Silkypix, DXO PhotoLab, Lightroom and Topaz DeNoise AI.

I'm not sure how I missed these Nick.
Great detail, each and every one

Very nice set Nick and not over saturated like quite a few I have seen lately on here. I much prefer the true to real life colours so these really hit the mark like most of your photos.

Thanks Alby. It is very helpful to have specific feedback (good or bad btw - it all helps).

These are the Tephritid Anomia purmunda. This is quite a common species in gardens. The larvae develop in a variet of berries including Rowan, Hawthorn and Pyracantha. I have found adults are attracted in some numbers to drying paint - about 1-2 days after it is applied!
