Why take Photographs?

Busy Bees and a creeping Caterpillar...

I don't do much nature photography but here are a few photos taken a couple of years ago when I first rediscovered photography. 
Lots had changed, the digital era had arrived for a start. 
No more hiding away in a dark room or waiting hours to see the results, I still miss the process of the dark room but the immediacy of digital photography overrides that. Plus you can duscard the dreadful ones and not waste any time uploading them.






Nature photography is quite challenging because to do it properly, the eyes have to be have to be pin sharp and sufficient detail elsewhere. An almost impossible task as by their nature they are fast and small, it's quute easy to cheat but that takes the challenge out and renders the whole exercise pointless to my mind. 

I try and get out of my confort zone everynow and then... this is definitely out of my comfort zone. 

Go for a walk and take your camera...
