    Fascinating - for me anyway!

    I was having a play with my new phone and got to the video area. Looking through I discovered the slow motion capabilities and thought I'd have a play.It all seemed to work well with dripping water and watching the bounce, so I thought I'd venture out into the garden. On a plastic box sat a fly so I set the camera to record when it sensed motion. It wasn't long before the fly took off - rapidly.
    What I found interesting was that it took off and flew away at about 90° angle from where it was, twisting sideways roughly 90° to a feet down position then flew off heading towards the sun. This left a superb silhouette of it flying which, to me, looks similar to bird wings.
    I just found it fascinating and I wouldn't have seen it if I'd had a rolled up newspaper in my hand instead of my phone!
