Thank you very much guys.
Here's the Dragonfly from yesterday. I'm not entirely happy with this image, but it's the best one I've managed of a Dragonfly. My lens is just a bit sharper at F9 and I didn't realise when I was taking the image I had adjusted it to F11 for a previous shot. By the time I'd realised it had flown off!

I had the day off work today to go to the dentist.. Crippling tooth ache..
Anyway. As it was sunny, I took the camera out for an airing. It was too windy really and not much about, however I did see a few Crane flies. They are interesting little creatures. Their eyes are fascinating. I wish I could have captured better.. Hopefully it won't be as windy next time.. Here's two of today's efforts.. The first one, I was focused on the eye, with wide aperture to capture as much detail as possible. Hence the shallow depth of field/focus.

Thank you Steve.
I'm hoping it will be a bit drier this weekend and less windy. Then hopefully I will have better luck and be able to focus a bit sharper.

I managed to get my macro lens back on last week...
I managed to get an "in focus" shot of a hovering hoverfly!! Hovering hoverfly! by Philip Davies, on Flickr Here's a couple of others: Spider on a thistle: Spider! by Philip Davies, on Flickr This one was a bit of a surprise. I was focused on the ant and didn't realise there was a spider in the shot until I looked on the computer: A Spider and an Ant. by Philip Davies, on Flickr Ant! by Philip Davies, on Flickr

I've not used the macro lens much this year, which is criminal when I think about how much it cost...
I stuck it on today and went out for a walk.. Nothing much about today which was a surprise. This is about the best one I got today. Hoverfly by Philip Davies, on Flickr These two I took a few weeks ago.. Bee on a flower by Philip Davies, on Flickr Ladybird pupa by Philip Davies, on Flickr

I forgot I took this... It was hidden in a different folder on my SD card. (My camera creates a different folder after 9999 images taken...)
Anyway, I was quite pleased. I think wasps are pretty creatures but find them difficult to photograph. They either don't sit still or chase me away! Wasp eating a blackberry by Philip Davies, on Flickr
