Surprising there were a high number of blue and green bottle flies where I usually shoot. This one was probably getting some warmth from the morning sun, on dew draped leaf.

A great catch on the iridescence and outstanding detail in the fly, Balan.  I would try blurring the two sharp green areas along the bottom or crop them out.
