Bee's, butterfly and a wasp

G'day all,

I've been enjoying taking some macro shots around the house in the last few days when I have the chance. Here's three I like

Bright clear daylight sure makes macro photography easier compared to the last lot I was doing back in winter!

Roger.

Good shots. It's actually Butterfly, Wasp, Drone fly (it's not a Bee).

A lovely set of photo's Roger - I like the way you have included the surroundings along with the insects, to produce some very pleasing compositions.

Cheers

Dennis

Thanks I think it's important to have a nice composition even with macro, so glad you noticed. I was trying for even more artistic compositions but haven't qite achieved what I wanted there yet.
