I was not trying to find it, but I new I was lucky when I saw it!
The photo is not very brilliant, but I was hanging from a small water fall, gripping to it with one hand and shooting my heavy camera with the other one.

so this turns even better the photo! it is not a simple task!!! :)
now it lacks to take a photo of Cephalodromia (micro-."bombyliids") in Lactuca spp. flowers, also in the Taraxacum spp. flowers. they are really small. And they are in huge numbers right now in Granada. :)
