Critique The fly and a Daisie

[Graham]

Hi all, well it seems like an eternity since I have posted, probably 2-3 weeks in reality though.
Not too much about really, saw lots of flies and hovers, a few Dragons and some Butterflies but even here in the sunny south its Harder to shoot these critters.

#1 Daisie Held against the clear blue sky

#2 No clue for this fluffy thing but they are everywhere.

#3 A Fly, Taken partly in the shade and I didn`t take my flash :banghead:

#4 Another Daisie, I`m really liking the colours of these, I`ve tried to tweak it a little but it seems to pop on its own.

Thanks for looking and any C&C is always welcome.

2nd Daisy is smack on the money focus wise shame it didn't have the lovely blue back ground of the other.

#2 very autumnal and very well shot good focus and composition

#3 shame about it being in the shade needed fill flash. could have used your pop up flash with the exposure comp down a little.

Thanks very much Bryn, there were still lots of Bees and Hovers, some very very small and there was just a handful of Butterflies but none that were stopping my way
Maybe I should get my @rse out there this weekend and try get one with the blue sky background
Very slowly learning to use Gimp and its features now so things will improve on PP side
