Default 3 failed projects in 1 day...

Decided to have a play day today. Unfortunately nothing turned out as well as I'd hoped. Anyway, here's the best of them (not the greatest shots in the world!).

Hi there! Don't be too sad. The 'Peacock buterfly' is a great capture...............not everyone gets to see these so well done there.
The spider and web shot is interesting too.............an unlucky victim there.......

Some days we get disappointed--like playing golf. The good shots keep us going.

The butterfly is beautiful...never seen one colored like that. Nice job.

I really like the colors on the butterfly, and the last two are just amazing! Good job...just curios though, what lens did you use? It seems to capture color very nicely. Thanks for sharing.

the first two arent bad but could be better. the purple in the corner of the butterfly one is a bit distracting.

the red paint ones are very harsh colours.

Cheer guys...just feels like a bad day today!

Deadjosh - Lens used was my canon 2.8l IS 70-200mm for all these shots.

itstim - yep...that's pretty much why this thread has the title it has! Sometimes it's a good thing to share your not so great days too.

moi - I wasn't sure what kind of butterfly it was but I do now...thank you.
