Answer: You shoot it.







I was trying to take a break in the shade and this thing would not leave me alone so it became my subject. I started pestering it. :duel:

:agree: Great captures. I usually just put my cat in the fly's path. She eats it.

Question... How did you get that fly to comb some mousse in its hair?

If it comes near me, I'll give it a perm with my electric fly swatter.

Sure, practice makes perfect but, unless you learn from your mistakes, you are only perfecting your ability to fail.
