A massive thank you to Carol and Christine for their user awards, two on one photo I was over the moon, and some very nice comments too thank you all very much.

I am trying different things at the moment and this is my latest attempt at in flight capture.

Thanks for looking and I hope you like it.

Kind regards. - gary

Oooh! I ducked when I saw this Gary - thought the little blighter was coming straight at me! Such a great capture - face and all!

Clever stuff here, Gary! I find it hard enough to capture these wee things stationary on a flower, never mind whilst still in flight, and how you managed to focus on this tiny in-flight object at all beats me. Wee done, you.
