It’s #flyday Friday, 23 December 2022
It was #FlyDay last Friday, and although I meant to post then there wasn’t quite the time. This particular fly was buzzing around the kitchen and I used the Sony Mavica MVC-FD51 for these super low resolution images. #fliesarebeautiful

Took the Sony Mavica MVC-FD51 out on the patio and tried some close-ups in ‘macro’ mode for the #ShittyCamaraChallenge #1990sCameraChallenge
#MacroMonday, 28 November 2022
I’ve never done a #MacroMonday before, but as it’s Monday and I can’t resist little diamonds on the cabbage leaves, I thought why not?

Water droplets on leaves, 14 November 2022
After a rainy night, the water droplets on the leaves are like little diamonds.
A selection of roadside flowers, 14 November 2022
When I’m out for a walk I have my phone to hand and always take a photograph of at least one flower (seasons permitting) to send to my better half. Of course, I always get carried away.
Roadside flowers #CloseUp, 12 November 2022
Out for a walk with the Sony Mavica and the disk is full. Fortunately, I have my phone to hand for these lovely flowers from the side of the road.

By the road in Águas Boas, 30 October 2022
When I’m out for a walk, it’s customary for me to bring back a flower for my better half. Not an actual flower, of course, but a photograph of an interesting bloom. There were lots of flowers by the roadside, but these were mostly dandelions and are so common. But then, along a wall, wasContinue reading “By the road in Águas Boas, 30 October 2022”

It’s a bugs life, 09 August 2022
It’s not a real holiday if I don’t spend at least a part of it chasing a bug across the sand … http://keithdevereux.blogspot.com/2022/08/its-bugs-life-09-august-2022.html
Hidden from the world, 07 August 2022
Tucked away half way up the cliff we traverse to get to the beach, and camouflaged against potential threats and also it’s prey, is this magnificent beast. I have no idea what species it is, but isn’t it wonderful? Every day for the past week and a half, at least, I’ve been trying to getContinue reading “Hidden from the world, 07 August 2022”

Natural world, #closeup 18 July 2022
Came across this ant dragging a dead beetle across the pavement back to its colony. There’s something so appealing about this.
Cellpic Sunday, #CloseUp on our new palms, 10 July 2022
We went to the local garden centre about a month ago and brought back some little palms. After repotting and allowing them time to adjust it looks as though one of them is finally starting to flourish. I don’t normally take part in these online ‘challenges’, not because I don’t want to but mostly becauseContinue reading “Cellpic Sunday, #CloseUp on our new palms, 10 July 2022”
