Taken in my garden a few years back. This little common blue butterfly landed on the poppy head and posed for a pic.

One of my fav pics. Not taken as many photos this year as I normally do, but the ones I did take all have strong meaning and personal connections.

I've got my eye on you

Macro ofa flower sprayed with water. Taken with mpe 65mm macro lens. Lit from behind with desk lamp.

Taken on a business trip and used the frosted bathroom door to capture this idea. I had my compact camera set up on 10 second timer on the bed and ran

Taken a while ago, it is a selfie, I then processed in Lightroom, using pretty preset Black Thorn and a bunch of hand edits.

This was actually a pink rose, made red in lightroom. I sprayed the rose with water to make it more interesting.

Taken on the downs in Brading on the Isle of Wight, on a butterfly hunt. This is one of the Blues, not sure if it is common or chalk-hill as the wings

Taken at freshwater bay.
