  • Party Girl and Hoverflies

    A few snaps from the back garden this afternoon, as well as being a pretty flower it seems insects just cannot get enough of the flower Party Girl.

    All taken with the E-30 and 50mm Macro and processed in LR3.







    Regards Paul.

    I like them all, Paul, but #4 holds my attention with the movement it contains. I have been trying to capture similar shots but my legacy lens and adapter setup makes it difficult and it's a bit trial and error, mostly errors.
