Bug Hunt
On slightly warmer days over the last couple of weeks, I have managed to complete a few bug hunts. I am hoping for better conditions soon, so that I can be out and about exploring both new and familiar locations. The gallery shows some of my favourites from the sessions so far.

I have been able to practice my technique and improve both on backgrounds and on accuracy of focus. Now looking for new sites that will provide some different species.
