A little hard to grab a shot in overcast and breezy weather conditions this week, but luckily a bee popped in for its 'a bit on the side'  :legit:

I don't know what everyone else has had weather wise this week, but the latter half here has been soggy and dim. Which is a shame, because I didn't find some moderately photogenic pegs until Thursday, and by then  the weather had turned. Took a shot anyway, but had to use a strobe, my rather unpredictable Sigma EF 610 Super: it worked in the end.

I have been struggling with this one. Think I may have an idea, just need to try now. I can tell its Sunday as I'm under a bit of pressure now to get the photo.

I was struggling but on a walk in the local woods I suddenly felt that I was being watched and had a sense of foreboding. Don`t know why...

Like I said, I struggled this week and not sue I have interpreted this one correctly. So I ended up going literally.(https://cameracraniums.com/gallery/albums/userpics/11327/normal_Sideways.jpg) (https://cameracraniums.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pid=21526&fullsize=1)
