Default More wildlife from my garden...
Hello folks, I'm new to the forums, this is just my 2nd post - big thanks to all who look and leave comments (you're so helpful, it's great!). I decided to give photography a try and I'm in the process of learning how to use my DSLR - I've been doing lots of experimenting so expect more from me!

Very nice. They are clear and sharp and you've caught the bee in mid flight, which is always interesting.
