I shot this male syrphid in my garden this morning, in the outskirts of the city of Iraklion, on the island of Crete, in Greece. Size <10mm.

Thanks a lot Dieter!

I wish to contribute any (or all?) of these photos to the gallery.
I also have them in higher resolution (1024px width).
Which one would be more suitable?

Since I hadn't received any feedback, I decided to submit the third one to the gallery, because I think its the best (photography-wise). If you also want any of the other two, let me know...
