Hmm, you've set yourself a very difficult challenge here. Your subject is a very small fly, and in order to get a shot with any real impact, you will have to get very close. This will be difficult with a P&S compact such as the one you are using.

The skill is going to be primarily in fieldcraft, the ability to get really close to your subject, more than your photographic skill. You really do need to get in more to fill the frame with the subject. Keep trying.
