    Now Debsie this is very good!, plenty of detail with a nice Bokeh, watch out for the wind and camera shake.


    Best regards Paul

    Wind and camera shake I know all about, but Bokeh!!! I'm just pleased it's nice Bokeh!! whatever that is. I'm either thick or getting old (or both)

    I think Bonsaidad means bouquet, Debsie (the flower head!!!). It's a hover-fly - Xanthrogramma pedissequum - sorry, this species doesn't have an English name.

    Easy way to spot a fly - two wings! (Bees, wasps etc - four wings)
    Oh, and it's evolved to look like a wasp, so other animals give it a wide berth.

    Another lovely image Debsie, (Bokeh!!!)= the effect that shallow depth of field has on the background, a very basic and simple explanation, worth looking if you want to.
