Macro Practice

I spoke too soon about my back as it's not so good again today so I've not been far. I spent some time with the macro lens in the garden enjoying some sunshine. Because I can't bend at the moment I set the camera up on the tripod and used the 'live view' window to line up the shot.......it's not an easy task with a DSLR in the sunshine but I needed the distraction and I ended up quite enjoying the challenge  :-))
I have included an extra photo of a hoverfly that sat really still and posed nicely :-)
