Default Following ME!!! WHY???

Did not matter where I shot my photos today these little Bugs followed me and sat on all the pretty flowers, after a lot of begging and threatening to write a letter I went with blowing and soft shaking, clear to say I gave up and ended up with these shots, I have done the bare minimum to these as I felt i could get away with (contrast, bright,dark and saturation) using FastStone free download, but will now be playing with CS4 on my photos once I get the hang off it with lots of practice and magazine help

Man, those bugs are everywhere! I imagine you were frustrated especially if the bugs were not your subject! Great looking shots though...bugs and all!

They must have an attraction to the flower .. these are extremely nice closeups .. crisp and vibrant colors .. very very nice .. I also use FastStone as an image viewer and I resized all my photos with it .. again beautiful photos

Thank you for all the lovely comments your all to kind
I would not have minded so much about the bugs if I thought I had a good enough camera/lens to treat them as the focal point but such is life, maybe if I am a good boy this year Santa will see me right
Thank you all again for lovely comments.
