My first Small Tortoiseshell butterfly for 2012

Bessa R on Uniloc tripod

The remains of a sunflower that has provided a winter cover and food crop for birds

This morning the flock were feeding in Great Luscombe (name of a field) and were about 200 in number

tough ask for any camera in darkness

Day 25 - still raining Taken my usual medication - did I OD "Can you hear me Major Tom"

sitting in the car in the supermarket car park whilst my wife did "a shop" to stock up my sons kitchen so that we do not starve during our visit back to the UK. This image is the reputation that the UK has in France, (always raining or about to)

DOF

let out of their pen - but they still do not move at any speed

got my feet up this evening so I've taken a few shots inside in artificial light which always reveal study areas. Never quite sure which to go for - square the horizontals or try to keep the verticals as vertical as possible and try to fix converging verticals. - Tripod used changed image...

Do not have much chance to shoot today as I had to fly off to the east of France to meet a mate and the weather was very wet.
