Wow very nice shots
I love #1 and the colours are great.
Gotta love the tammy 90mm, I have one myself.
I see in your intro you are into bikes, I am kinda into them myself. I mainly do trail riding south of Sydney when i get the chance and would love to get up to your neck of the woods as i am told there are some great trails to explore.
Can't say i have heard of Malanda Though : Is that near Mackay :
Good luck and keep those macros coming

Thanks Clarky.
Malanda is 80 klm inland from Cairns, known mainly for it's dairy.
I have not had a trailie for a few years but will be looking after the UK trip,
Been running around on Mr bloors Triumph products for the last 12 years.
If you ever get up this way give us a shout.

Thats why i have never heard of it, I have have been to Cairns once but only passing through on my way too the cape.
Have fun on your UK junket I was there for a couple of weeks last May, loved it.
Being from Somewhere as remote as Malanda and getting into London will be a contradiction of life styles i'm sure
Some very friendly and knowlegable folk on this forum who can point you too many great photo locations.

Excellent photos, and a even better choice in bikes! I have a 1200 Trophy, had it over seven years now, great bike;o) Nearly bought a Tiger a few years ago, but a useless dealer saved me from financial suicide!Thanks Clarky.

I really like the composition of the #1 shot. Excellent shot.
It really stands out compared to the others....

Shot #3 for me - I can't say I'm a huge fan of wasps in general, but I love this composition and the eye detail. Fantastic photo!

Yep, that 3rd one is wonderful. I'm guessing it's a crop, but it's still great at this size.

No. 3 for me although I think that I would prefer it with a less heavy black frame

Absolute fantastic photo's. Great colours Number one is my absolute favorite. One small point of worries though Does this mean we have a second Clarky on our hands I mean........How much can a human stand. All those creepy critters, right under our bottom. Please tell me you actually like architecture a lot more, Please with lots of sugar :

Amazing photographs
The good news though is that both Clarky's and 08tiger's insects are on the other side of the world and probably would not like the climate of Northern Europe

There wouldn't be much in the way of architecture where Don is from, unless you like cow sheds and lean toos But plenty of bugs Absolute fantastic photo's.

You only have to see 2 bugs togther and you know they are talking about a cow

We like to think of them as "BARNS" and I think the mosquito is actually listed as our Provincial "BIRD".unless you like cow sheds and lean toos But plenty of bugs

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.
