A Certain Blue Feeling

Little Pink Newborn

I took a cutting from my old Thanksgiving Cactus (Not to be confused with the true Christmas cactus) and while it was rooting I noticed this little tiny shoot, less than an inch long, and how pink it was. I had to get pics!
It was a difficult setting as it was in a pot and I didnt want to see the pot in the shot so I had a bit of jiggery pokery to do!
The camera was tripod mounted and with the fading light I took some long exposure shots with the self timer-I had to be quick!

Beautiful Symmetry

I found this Riband Wave moth near the stairs and got a few shots off with my flash on a bracket.

Crescent Moon and Venus

When I took this in March the crescent Moon and Venus were arranged closely in the night sky, with Jupiter a little further off. I got this shot by holding my smartphone up to the eyepiece of a 7x40 monocular I have, a very hit and miss affair! This is the best of 3 shots.

Little Jumper

I spotted this tiny chap earlier, and after a first shot he turned around to look right at me!

Gimme Shelter

A Ladybird shelters from the cold in the confines of the conifer in my garden.
