Horsefly


As I hiked through the dense forest, I couldn't help but feel surrounded by the stories of those who had walked here before me. It was as if the towering trees whispered secrets amongst themselves, sharing tales of the animals that roamed their forest and the travelers who had passed through.

Lost in my own thoughts, I hardly noticed the small horsefly buzzing around my head until it landed on my leg and bit me hard. I winced in pain as the sharp sting echoed through my body, but I couldn't help but be fascinated by the insect's intricate details.

I quickly whipped out my camera, adjusting the settings for macrophotography before focusing on the horsefly that continued to irritate me. Through the lens, I could see the tiny hairs on its legs and the deep red eyes that glinted with malevolent glee.

Satisfied with my shot, I continued my hike, but the memory of the horsefly lingered with me. I couldn't shake the feeling that it wasn't just a bug, but something more sinister.

As I walked, the forest seemed to grow darker and the trees more foreboding. I wondered if I had stumbled into a part of the woods that was best left untouched, but I pressed on nonetheless.


I was use here my Sony NEX-5T
I was use here my Sony 3.5/30 mm Macro lens.
