I paid 7pounds each for a pair of Energiser DLi90 substitutes and they have given no trouble whatsoever. Also, if you carefully cut across the top of the packaging to avoid damaging the interior, it can be kept, complete with its inner tray, to keep your charged battery safe.

Flippin 'eck. Dunno how you managed to hold it so steady AND keep the focus.

Everyone has, rightly, commented about the detail not being blown (difficult). They are all standard 'portraits' of the bloom concerned. The Tamron ought to be able to focus in quite tightly on individual details - many of which are fascinating, visually (poppy centres being a case in point). It's a whole new technique that can produce remarkable images - which is in no way meant to denigrate these, which are very well done.

I like the low angle ones of the water lillies.
I've never done this. How well does the camera deal with the heat and humidity?

Well, I too have been educated.
Walt (above) points out that these are harlequin ladybirds. Until I just looked that up and compared them with 'native british ladybirds' I always thought they were all simply 'ladybirds'. Most certainly not so!
Thank you Walt

4 and 9 rock my boat but taken all together, you have totally capsized it!
Wonderful images

You certainly seem to have got the hang of rocking backwards and forwards (and swearing to yourself when the bee moves or the wind blows). 2 and 3 take the prize for me.
As to hit and miss camera settings, I leave it on Av and stop down as far as I dare (until the meter shows about 1/20th sec) to maximise D of F. That way, all you have to worry about is focus

Wow - 70-300? My forte is the other end of a macro 50
Never mind. I'll look at your tennis if you will look at my bugs and flowers. Welcome!
