Went to New Farm Park playground this morning, managed to sneak away from Kristy and Hayden for 20mins to take some macros. Last couple of times I've been out this season I have been experimenting with my gear and setup, but haven't been getting any keepers. This time I stuck with what I'm comfortable with.

Fly. Not sure of the ID.

Cute jumper. Wish I could have gotten a stack of this guy, but they didn't turn out.

I especially like the little jumper peering over the edge of a leaf! That's probably my fav jumper pose if I had to pick out one.

All the photos were well-lit, well-composed and have nice detail too.
