Hiya Daveyboy123,

Excellent shots, #2 is my favorite, I can see what Brian means by #1 looking like a Vampire Bat :lol:

Looks like you have got/had better weather in Dunsford than we have here it's blowing a good S.W'ly & comming down Stair Rods.

Cheers for now
Mark

They're all good but #2is simply stunning. Both the dragonfly and the capture. I also love the last butterfly shot, such superb detail. Looks like you've done some hilight-recovery beneath the eye because it has far less contrast than the rest of the butterfly. Or is it just me?
