    Shutterbug and I must have gotten the same idea this morning! I went out the back garden and shot these little fellas. I don’t know whether they’re wasps or bees or what! :)
    C + C welcome also…

    Shot with the Sigma APO DG 70-300 lens using the macro switch.

    Cheers for looking,
    beef…

    Thanks guys! Yeah I was trying for about half an hour to get the little buggers while in flight! It’s very difficult because of the need to manual focus. Great fun though!! This tame effort is all I could come up with Noelly, not for C + C mind!!!! :D

    Cheers,

    Two great shots, they fool you into a false sense of security as
    they hang in the air, just on the edge of focus and zzziiippppp
