Not sure what the name is of this insect (some kind of hoover fly?) But it definetly had huge eyes! I spotted it in Tiveden, Sweden last summer.
If anybody knows the name that would be great! Thank you

There are a great number of hover fly species, so tough to specifically ID Ester.
I looked at your website image, looks great large with the contrasting purples & green.
I see the fly's in peek-a-boo mode too, it works for me

I like the view at the fly, even though it looks hidden amid the flowers. Excellent detail on the fly. The bloom on the left has very nice color. Overall, a pretty image with good viewer interest.
