- Comment Prasan Shrestha, is that a big dust spot to the right of the insect's head? It looks like one at full screen, and it's visible even as a thumbnail on this page. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:57, 19 August 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for the comment ikan kekek, hover fly are roughly 1 to 2 cm in width and the area of its compound eyes are nearly 1 to 2 mms so in this super macro image i can only guess that it may be some dust particles or pollen or a small water particles stuck from the rain or dew drops or the white color may be the reflection of my flash in the dew or rain drop in the compound eyes Prasan Shrestha (talk) 13:56, 21 August 2023 (UTC)
- Prasan Shrestha, the dust spot is not on the hoverfly but in the air. I will mark it. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 23:36, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
- Then it must be dust in camera sensor 2400:1A00:B050:E7AA:8C7F:8F94:173A:D22A 08:03, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
