When the light conditions are favourable (bright but cloudy) I like trying just shooting with available light.

    Wonderful, the soft light is very complementary.

    Thanks for the very kind comments- have to admit I was chuffed how these came out :)

    Skippy - not sure what the climate is like for gardening there, but sounds like you need to do some intensive horticulture :)

    In one spot of my garden yesterday the flying bugs were at war with each other- bees, wasps, flies and hovers all flying around bouncing each other for the best sunny spots- it was very difficult knowing where to start pointing the camera - of course the intensive breeding and training programme helps :whip :)
