Insect and flower. I shot this series with Olympus TOUGH TG-5 by using (normal) macro feature. In this case I could not use extended focus because insect was moving way too fast and it was quite challange to get some photos even with normal macro. I shot over 200 photos to get these few. However with compact macro (with small sensor size) this is somewhat easier than with full frame sensor DSLR and macro lens. Hausjärvi, Finland. 28.8.2017
Insects are everywhere. Photograph a bug in your environment (no spiders - they're arachnids). (@DeForestRanger)
I expected this to be an easy assignment but the winds today seem to have driven off the bees and butterflies that are usually in the gardens.
This little bug is the most hated pest in our yard. It destroys the grape leaves, the burning bush leaves and so many flowers. We've tried the traps but haven't found them effective. So when they get too bad we take a bucket of soapy water and just pick them off the plants and toss them in the bucket. Anyone have a better plan?
