Nice shots with a bit of thought put into composition. Shot three takes it for me though. The butterfly is stunning, even if it IS mooning at the bee. As for 'bugolinis' would you happen to be a fan of Ned Flanders? :D

Thank you very much Brian..... Sometimes it is nice to back off with Macro and work more on composition, lighting, yet still trying to keep sharp definition ....I don't do it often enough :) :) I'm glad you liked these... Take care

Another stunning set of shots :D

The dragonfly - smiling as usual :D :D

The first butterfly shot is quite amusing, it looks like it is ducking as if something is going to swoop or swat it. Love that fur detail showing on its back.

The butterfly and bee shot is fabulous and so is the cricket.

You get such a wonderful colour combination on those butterfly shots.

Re the people in the UK with the weather, well some are still struggling badly and we all feel terribly sorry for them. Further south we are not in a dire situation like they are. Everyone hopes that their lives and homes can return to normal as quickily as possible. Thanks for asking :D

Thanks as always for your kind comments Linda :).... The U K brothers and sisters with water woes are in my prayers too.... It has been very bad in a lot of countries this year.... Thanks for the update.... My sister lives in the UK, as do many of my friends from both sides of the pond.... Take care Linda.... Thanks again.....
