You nearly always catch me at my Cornflakes, Carol: I don't remember seeing this character before! The range of insect life with which you are surrounded is amazing. Three great shots, with V 1 being outstanding.

Looks as though it's been embroidered with gold thread and tiny beads - you must have been thinking along the same lines with the title. Super trio but it is V1 which catches the attention.
