Intimacy with Insects: mayfly on my keyboard

F10! F10!
Took this long back, when I bought the camera and was inspecting it. It was night and the picture is a bit pixellated in the flourescent light. Its golden bronze eyes have come out well. Mayflys are aquatic insects where the immature stage occurs in fresh water (called naiads). The adults are short-lived, maybe as little as a few hours to a day or two, depending on the species.
