I have a few bug shots of course but yesterday I decided to open up the aperture much further than my usual F11 on 2 or 3 of them to get something a little more abstract. They're a little out of my normal comfort zone of bugs (mainly as there weren't many about).

Abstract Droplet - F3.5

Another single droplet @ F8 but a little closer than the image above.

A fly @ F3.5 - Thankfully it was very small given the tiny DoF I was working with

A droplet on a Bluebell @ F5.0 - Flowers aren't my forté

Back to my normal F11 for the following images

A larger fly in a rather yellowish environment.

...and a fly I'm not sure on the I.D of, or whether I should even have let it go onto my hand

Those are really wonderful shots, Ian. Love that single droplet (second shot) very much.

They are lovely.

I wish I had the vision to see and then capture shots like that.
