Still Practising....

Spent far too much time on my photography today!!

Went out for my usual lakeside walk but I didn't take the tripod and wasn't happy with the results.

After the rain, I went out into the garden and found this ladybird on the window. That's why it looks like it's floating. I had to wait for it to settle and then try and set up the tripod and macro lens to get a reasonable shot.

I find it really to hard to focus on the right spot but I'll keep at it. I even managed a bit of Photoshop work to get rid of some tiny dirt splodges on the window too.

You can also see a couple of reflections of the underside of the ladybird.
