Cheers guys, looks like it might be this, just not developed the colours yet.

For the last few weeks i have noticed a little pile of what looked like sawdust on a tree stump in the garden. I have been keeping an eye on it, clearing it, but never seeing anything.
Until this morning

These are what came out went back in came out again and eventually flew off.
I saw around 6 fly away, but there seemed to be more down there.
They look like a wasp type thing i shot a while ago, face wise, but these are just black, might just be because these are just emerging and haven't developed their colours yet or they might not be the same bug at all.

Savage set, I cant imagine how you visualize this type of shot before you take it, I have tried icm a couple of times and my results have been less than promising
These are super, very arty and wouldnt look out of place in any gallery.
My fav's are 2, 3 and 9,

The buildings in 14 remind me of Lowry.

All are super,
Again, Fantastic set and a great idea.

Derek

Got out for a few hours today, here are a few shots.
Getting your ducks in a row.
