Robin on a feeder. Not the sharpest I'm afraid, need to get better at this type of photography perhaps. But I like its pose, so share I will :) #robin #robins #robinredbreast #bird #birdphotography #birdphoto #nature #birdsofinstagram #ukbirds #gard
Shed Zebra! Tiny Zebra Spider hiding from me in the crack between the shed door and its frame. It wasn't going to stay long...hope I see it again someday! #macro #macrophoto #macrophotos #photomacro #macroholic #macro_highlight #Macro_brilliance #p
Starling on our bird feeding frantically flapping for stability. Noisy and very competitive with each other, but the colours in their feathers look amazing in the right light! #starling #starlings #feather #birds #birding #birdsofinstagram #nature #
Look what the cat dragged in... A somewhat mangled Cockchafer Beetle (I think), that one of my cats caught and brought home to play with, with his sister. We rescued it and I got some pics and put it out, but I doubt it survived :( This is a focus
Silly Saturday pic of a little snail found "booking it" across a plastic cover of a box in the garden. Had a lot of fun messing with the colours for this one in lightroom. #snail #macro #macrophoto #macrophotos #photomacro #macroholic #mac

Lovely little Shield/Stink bug that buzzed me whilst sitting at my computer one morning. I captured it, put it on some card and had some fun letting it pose...and then watched it explore its new found freedom :) #macro #macrophoto #macrophotos #phot
Found roosting in the garden on a cold spring evening. Still there the next day too. Allowed me to get close and get a fair few usable shots. #macro #macrophoto #macrophotos #photomacro #macroholic #macro_highlight #Macro_brilliance #passion_in_macr

For one of us to live, the other must die! Tiny green spider with a parasitic wasp lavae feeding of it. Was a windy day and the spider was very active, though that will change unfortunately ;) - wasn't able to get a clear shot due to that, and my in
Whilst ant hunting, I spotted this wood louse having a few right side up problems. Yes, of course I righted it after photographing its sensitive bits :P #macro #macrophoto #macrophotos #photomacro #macroholic #macro_highlight #Macro_brilliance #pa

Handheld snap shot of the evening moon. #canonr7 #moon #uk #sky #blue #lunar
3 or 4 stacked shots of a bumble bee that landed on our garden path for a bit of a rest. Got a few shots off before it moved on. Pleased with how close I got (x3 on the MP-E 65mm), but was a little underexposed and I'm unsure of the final result. #m
