Color version of image looks much better than black and white because the shadow of fly clearly see on the floor.

I prefer the color version. I like the pop of orange on the fly's eyes agains blue/grey background. I would keep the scratches. Looks like from some horror movie with that bit shadow.

Very ominous looking in B&W.
I'd keep the scratches, but lose the ... whatever it is... at top right.
Decisions, decisions.

I too like the B&W... I might try to photoshop some of the scratches on the pot out as it draws my eye away from the fly...

I was taking some macro shots in the backyard when I say this fly on the side of a flower pot, it really wasn't the fly itself that interested me but the shadow he was casting. I was working on it in post and decided to try it in black & white too, I immediately thought of Alfred Hitchcock for some reason when I seen it in B&W lol. I used my Canon 60D with my Tokina AT-X 100mm f/2.8 Pro D Macro Lens
