I watched this lizard for ages yesterday. It wasn't bothered by me at all. At one point it ran across and tried to lick my finger! At this stage it had got covered in cob webs and you can see the sand particles quite clearly. It then went rolling around wiping the cobwebs off it's face against the stones.
Put a crop in below to show it's amazing eye.
Put a blog together tonight about some of the amazing critters you can find in Yorkshire.
This is probably the prettiest colors I have ever seen on a Chevron Tang (aka juvenile Black Surgeonfish) found at Air Station while diving with Kona Honu Divers.
Looking at pictures posted by John and Adiemus (awesome!!!!).... I had to go buy the 100mm macro lens. These are some of the flower pictures I took with it. Some were at home and some at the callaway gardens. Hope you guys like it.... :)
This pair of daisies was also subject to the "flipped 50" macro style.
UPDATE (3 February 2016): Sometimes looking back at some of these things allows you to take stock of all the errors you've made and how it should have been shot. I try to take the errors as they are but also try to realize that some of these shots worked not because of a lack of skill and a lot of luck, but because they were part of the learning process.
Raindrop on pond filter brush. Not done one of these shots for ages but like how the nylon fibres act as light guides. I have changed the hue in PS
Bibionidae are medium-sized flies with a body length from 4.0 to 10.0 mm. The body is black, brown, or rusty, and thickset, with thick legs. The antennae are moniliform. The front tibiae bear large strong spurs or a circlet of spines. The tarsi are five-segmented and bear tarsal claws, pulvilli, and a well developed empodium. The wings have two basal cells (posterior basal wing cell and basal wing cell), but are without a discoidal wing cell.
Playing about with extension tubes to take macro photos on my 85mm f1.2 lens! They did a pretty good job for £20!
