Is this picture of two different types of flies mating rare?

[justin0]

I recently captured a picture of two different types of flies mating. Just wanted to know whether this is a rare picture or not. If it is a rare picture then kindly guide me on how do I monetize it.



Here is the link to the picture:

PS: The picture quality is not that good as I captured it with my smartphone camera & I could not upload the images as they are bigger than the maximum upload size.

Yes the one on top is a bit confused I expect...   This sometimes happens but it is an interesting observation as the flies are from two different families. Not too sure why you need the massive C all over the image, it obscures the detail of your picture. Some people often seem obsessive with their photo copyright these days and this is a very good example.

Don’t forget that Mr.Paparozzi wants to sell the picture for a big buck.

mmm from what I heard the prices you get for this type of image are  actually quite small. I constantly see all types of images of live insects on facebook groups that are posted for identification or to show their skills, some of very variable quality with copyright all over them. If you want to post images for people to view, I rather not see writing all over them or at least, if it gives you sleepless nights that someone wants to seal your insect image, how about small writing in the corner of the photo.

Maybe I am wrong, but I kind of doubt there is a lot of money in a pic of two flies having sex.

I doubt very much if they are actually doing the act, the larger one is attempting to, photographers know that  to  sell this type of insect image  for whatever amount you need a high quality one and showing good detail and better that is not placed on an artificial background. This interest here is more scientifically valuable than monetary.
