So to make the most of it I grabbed my camera and headed for the garden, we have had a number of different butterfly on our buddleia (possibly the best £3 I have ever spent), but today it was Hover Fly and a few different species.
To keep things simple as they have the strangest of names here are the pics of Hover Fly I got.
I also go this Forest Bug which sat nicely on my window before flying off.
Finally another Hover Fly, thought I would save this until last, I just loved the way this came out apart from the head isn't in focus, it looks great.
All photos taken with Nikon D70 + Sigma 28-100mm + 10x macro adapter
Well hope you liked the pics.
Until next time.
Mike.

I found your blog today through Mary's recommendation. You have wonderful photos. Your macro shots are absolutely stunning. I wish I could afford a camera & lens like that. But I do the best I can within my physical and financial limits. ;) And I enjoy doing it.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to watching your blog.
Great set of Macros Mike. I took some today, but I think I needed better light...
