Hoverfly

This one mimics bees

Nice capture, Beryl!

(It seems very over-exposed to me though.
When I - naughtily - reduced the brightness slightly, the contrast a bit and the midtones even more, it looked just perfect!
Maybe it's just me....:rolleyes:)

I do find creatures who mimic others absolutely fascinating.
I now usually take in RAW - it may slow you me down a bit (and take up more space), but it's fantastic in cases of over (or under) exposure - it's enabled me to make some great shots that normally I wouldn't even have kept.

Mike, our son, does that, Louise, but it's far too brain and time-consuming for me!

He likes to do HDR shots and ones of lightning as well.

I'm just a simple soul!:innocent1:

Simple, eh? I'm glad you said that rather than me ;)

Thanks :)
It's a white-tailed hover fly. It might be over exposed but that is exactly how I saw it with out the camera Or I would have darkened it
