Macro capture of a Pacific Tree Frog. Adult tree frogs measure up to two inches in length.

The temperature was right at 32 degrees with the freezing rain falling ... it was neat watching it freeze on the outside of the water droplet hanging there, then melt and drop off. You can see the patterns of the freezing eggshell there with this macro capture.

Spring is in the air, a little early. Spring doesn't officially start until 20th March. Nice to see the delicate Weeping Willow seeds (Salix Babylonica) making an appearance at Attenborough Nature Reserve (Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI)), here in Nottinghamshire.

Landscape macro capture of a woodland floor covered in spring sunlit Bluebells. Photo taken in Barnet, Hertfordshire, UK in April 2015.

Lycaena phlaeas, the small copper, American copper, or common copper, is a butterfly of the Lycaenids or gossamer-winged butterfly family. According to Guppy and Shepard (2001), its specific name phlaeas is said to be derived either from the Greek phlego, "to burn up" or from the Latin floreo, "to flourish".

Placed the macro lens and 7D Mark II on the tripod and took this close in macro capture of the end of the leaf. Very cool patterns that expand the closer you look in.

Another macro capture taken in my garden recently. This time it's a Six-spot Ladybird on Forget-me-nots. It's surprising what you can find to photograph in these times of lockdown if you're lucky enough to have a garden. You don't have to leave your home to be able to photograph our wildlife. All you need is a macro lens and your eyes and a different perspective from the norm, so why not set yourself a challenge. My garden isn't large but I've seen lots of different species of bees, hoverflies and bee flies as well as this rather obliging ladybird.

During my walk through "De Groote Peel",

one of the 22 National Parks of the Netherlands,

I switched lenses for a macro capture

HFF !

Whilst on macro captures here's one from our recent few days at Winthorpe on the Lincolnshire Coast..

Traveller’s joy has been used in various treatments as it is said to contain anti-inflammatory properties. Traditional recipes used the plant to treat various ailments, including skin irritations and stress.

As this species is a woody plant, the stem was used in the past to make baskets. It is called traveller's joy because it adorns hedges and banks in the countryside with billows of beautiful feathery seed heads in the grey months leading up to Christmas.

Recently visited Oldmoor Wood, Nottinghamshire. Oldmoor Wood is a woodland in Nottinghamshire, near the village of Strelley. It covers a total area of 15.11 hectares. It is owned and managed by The Woodland Trust.

I went primarily for the beautiful Bluebells. There is a mix of Native and Spanish Bluebells.

Native Bluebells are protected in the UK under the Wildlife and Countryside Act, 1981.

How to tell the difference.

English Bluebells: Flowers on one side of the stem.

Spanish Bluebells: Flowers all around the stem.
