Not strayed very far for these, no more than 40 ft, the Burnett moth was a tad lucky thou, landed in the grass as I was shooting the Geranium

Well done, just enjoy it, run through the plan in your head a few times of how your going to approach it and maybe have some pace notes as prompters

Morning Derek,

Defiantly the first image, the yellows are to bright in the second image which distracts from the subject and #3 imo, just looks un-balanced and a bit odd

Great sky on the first one, this just edges the rest of the set for me

Thanks Redbusa99

The gardens around by the café have always been good for insects ( where the wildlife ponds are ) and if you take the footpath to the first hide from there, the garden area in front of the hide again has always been good for flora and insects.

Superbly well captured, loads of detail and exposure is spot on.
