An unusual little bug.....

Post by Dearis »

Hi there,

this little fellow has been flitting around my garden now for months, extremely hard to photograph, the other day I spent 4 hours trying to get some decent shots of them. Hope you like!!

Comments welcome as always

Regards Darren

I have a funny feeling and don't quote me, that these are what you call "Skippers" over the ditch. Anyway, this is excellent use of selective focusing and the colours are brilliant. Nice work Darren :D

Worry about the image that comes out of the box, rather than the box itself.

Yea, we call them skippers here also Darren. Wonderful photos of the little guy. This one is very colorful compared to the ones I have seen. The head-on shot (#2) is very cute. 4 hours :shock: , it was worth it :wink:
