I was very pleased to see this lot arrive. 10 days ago there were 5 chicks. Last Saturday there were only 4...
However , today... (28, I think)

Winchester, this morning

a couple from today from the "street where I live"

rain, sun, light and shade

(I must be doing something wrong as the images look very much below par, they look just "flat" with hazy subdued colours, on here compared with what they look like in Lightroom on my desktop????)

Yes Wayne, quite common apparently, although I did not know they existed until I saw a macro shot of one on social media. After that I guess I knew what to look for, once I knew they existed if that makes sense.

Hi, so I have read. The sting is not venomous, coming from the tail with the enlarged masculine sexual organ, which is used in a friendly way, reproductively ... ---

before I get into my usual flower image stacking, ending up with 100mb Tiff files - I'm just trying a few "single one shots" with the Zf

Zf + Micro Nikon 105mm f2.8 VR with a little help from my friend, (LR)

One of my wife's tree peonies

That's a cracking set and especially like the first one.

Thank you.

:D

Mrs WW is away but she watches me when I go outside. I know this as she's sent me some CCTV screen shots :D She also asks what I'm eating so I sent her a picture of my dinner today. Vegi sausage, boiled and fried potato, carrot, onion and tomato.

It was very nice and I followed it with a glass of home made bramble juice :D

Yes the scorpion tail helps the male to get purchase on the female during mating but no sting.
