Cosmos Orange Flower with a Fly!

The flower is called Cosmos Orange. Do not know the name of the fly. But together they make a pretty picture. Clicked this one at the Chalets Garden at Naldehra.

    Mridula, need your help in identifying a flower for me. After looking at this picture and after reading Shrinidhi’s comment on my blog, I think the flower I clicked is Cosmos Orange, though am not sure.

    What do you think? Here is the link http://www.beontheroad.com/2010/08/photographing-yellow-flowers-at.html

    I’ve seen this flower in many places in Kerala, its golden and beautiful. You have captured it well.
