A Bugs Life
 

Not quite up there with Paul and both Alan's on here with their superb macro work but quite pleased with how this turned out :}

Ah, the illusive hoverfly good shot.

Looks like a Gazinia in the background.

Good shot Jeff

Nice photo's Jeff, thanks for sharing :}.

Great composition on that last one.

We should start a "guess the out of focus close up of a flower" thread :}

I have taught myself a lot about plants and insects through photography. I am still no expert but I can name a few more than I used to know.

Took this one as well yesterday and I know its a Bumble Bee on a Passion Flower :D

They are great (passion flowers) I wish we had some here. Maybe I should go and buy one Hmmm...........

I have one along with a lot of other climbers in my garden not all of them weeds:eek:
So maybe I should get out in my own garden and take some macro photos for a change ;)

Another from yesterday:}

Another fly. One thing I have learned is how many flies actually pollinate plants. It is not all down to the bees.

I do enjoy taking insect shots (you may have guessed).

That's it - I am off to the garden centre :}
