Cheers Bryn and wow, I must be doing something right :banana: I know its this Lens :) although today I had the t/c 2x on, tbh it didnt help and in fact I have noticed it gives a slight purple/blue edge on some subjects.
My fav is 4/5 and 6.
 
Lovely set of images Graham, some good detail, composition, and colours.(y)

George.

Great Graham - the eyes on the bee is terrific, and the little spider is a harvestman (an opilione).

Thanks Paul, I've not seen one of these bees before but it stood out from the crowd.
I couldn't remember the name of the spider.:banghead: Thanks

Some nice shots in here - especially #2 & #6

The hairstreak looks a little soft to me - maybe tiny amount of camera shake/ subject movement ? Nice to find all those subjects am v.jealous.

Cheers Chris, Yes it is a little soft I think, I had a t/c 2 x on, I dont think it helped and it is a cheapy one so quality is not that good.
Glad your a tad jealous :D i`ll be out a lot more from now especially if the temp is like it is today (27 degs) :cool: :D:p but so so gusty today so no going out :(
I have lots of critters to choose from here, but I need to improve my diffuser.
