Rain brings life...today was no exception.

This all started while i was chasing around a magical silver hoverfly, since he was able to successfully elude me i found these 2 instead.

1. I initially tried to coax this guy onto my finger, in retrospect i'm kinda glad i didn't after seeing that sword hanging off his face.

2. This little guy was happy just hanging out in the flower.

Yes, #2 for me as well. The green on blue works nicely.

Cheers,

The second shot looks more natural and aesthetically pleasing as it avoids the harsh black background.
