Last Saturday was quite cool, air temps were approx 8c, so it was ideal conditions for finding some Adders. Besides, i could only find the one Butterfly on the wing, so i needed my Spring time "Adder Fix".
Panasonic G80/45-150mm used. Coupled with a 500D close up filter...Just to push the limits some more, i stacked two 500D close up filters together(for the really close up shots).
Handheld, Jpegs, basic editing. None of these images have been cropped.
4 Adders seen on the day, 2 males, a female, an a possible juvenile female?
I never handle Adders, i never try to move them, i photograph them exactly as i find them in the wild.
Note - Always show caution when getting this close to an Adder. Ive been observing Adders for well over a decade now, so i have some understanding, when it comes to how these beautiful creatures might react.
Several images, cheers Paul.
