No
The sun was shining for a change so I stole an hour
in the garden.
They are no where near as close as some of you guys get but its a start :D

This is not my usual thing so be as harsh as you like, I won't :dummy:
promise :D

Oh and the hovers were barely 8mm long BTW ( he said by way of an excuse :D)


Here we have a hoverfliy ( not doing as its name suggests though)

Maybe not..............but damn good all the same........my favourite is the annoyed wasp:clap::clap:
 
Thanks for dropping by Keith its appreciated (y)
 
The only thing I would criticise is the lighting from the flash seems very harsh, possibly you could put together a diffuser of some sort for it?

Otherwise some very good shots.

I have not "used" the flash that much as yet, and I agree that
I do need to sort that out (y)
