A few flowers and a couple of flys

I haven't posted much recently, with the kids being off for summer hols it's not easy to get the trime to take many photo's.

I first saw one of these a few days before on some foliage, but managed to find it on something more appealing this time.

This little guy flew away as soon as I pointed the camera towards the flower but thankfully came back a few seconds later.

I almost always manage to see at least one of these little guys.

Three cracking images there Stuart lovely warm vibrant colours, particularly like the last shot.

Thanks. Took a couple today with the sigma dp3 merrill instead of the slr gear. Easier to handle but harder to keep steady and focus, for me at least.
