garden wildlife update
Good day ,
Last night after sunset i decided to give the garden some water especially those plants that i have planted and seeded this year.
However some of that water landed on flowers and a complaining neigbour.
So i went inside to grab the camera and make some water drop pictures .
I started with this llittle pink rose originally solld as a white rose but i guess i have to much acid in my soil so they turn pink overtime.
Our green neigbour didn't look so happy with his free shower, he was sittitng on another small rose flower.
the blackbackground is because the photo was taken after sunset so i had to use my flashlight .
i was very happywith the light results using the flash on 1/4 and the camera on iso 400 f8 1/160 shutter speed
getting things in focus was a bit tricky and the wind wasn't really hellping either.
but overal not bad for after sunset macro shooting.
This morning i wen t back into the garden when i spotted movement in my white Paeonie flower, can you spot it ?
Crab spider
Can you see it now ?
Maybe if i turn the picture
it was waiting for food delivery , any flying polinator will do just fine.
Every day i manage to spot something else to photograpph in my garden this morning i spotted this baby grashopper / sprinkhaan .
it stayed very calm while posing fyi this one is less then 2cm long , photographed with 2.5 magnification
time to further explore the garden
This small geranium waking up
and futrher on in the garden i spotted these Trichius fasciatus / Eurasian bee beetle / penseelkever sleeping on top of my purple cornflower.
i was unable to get it to smile to the camera
even with the 2.5 magnification lens
it just kept snoring , maybe i have more luck around sunset tonight.
and i also spotted this unidentified fly
and another one
and his cousin was sitting on the pink geranium flower
o well we started with a pink rose we might aswell finish with one , hope you liked the garden tour of today.

thank you ver much, i'm glad you liked it .
My pleasure
Man, you have a great eye!
thank you , years of jigsaw puzles during your childhood helps with spotting things in the wild.
I like the grasshopper image display number two... dark but still elegant👍
thank you , it was a bit tricky but we got the light where we wanted it to be.
Woww heart touching click of pink rose. I'm amazed to know that acid in soil could change the color of rose. You click all pictures perfectly.
thank you very much, the soil quality can have influence on many flowers not just roses hydrangea also changes color if the soil isn't good enough
Wow those macro photos are great @stresskiller
Even though the photos are taken in the evening, the quality is great.
thank you , for stopping by
wow...the black background looks so classy...just professional your photos
thank you , i'm glad you liked it.
Your macro photographs are amazing. I have no words to describe the beauty of these photographs. I love flowers more than insects, so your first photograph of a drop of water on a flower petal is one of my favorite photographs. Even so, I love pink flowers.
thank you for stopping by, i try to mix as much as possible insects and flowers , but sometimes the garden offers more insects then flowers :) have a great weekend
Honestly, you are very creative
Those pictures are very nice
thank you very much , have a great weekend
Awesome work my friend have the best weekend

Amazing photography, what a strange world we overlook.
thank you , indeed all those smal life forms running and flying in our own garden
Really lovely shots! I find myself taking photos of the beauty all around me often! Night macros! Now that's a challenge! Thank you for sharing! 😁 🙏 💚 ✨ 🤙
thank you i'm glad you like it , the benefit of macrophotography after sunset is that they move slower and you have complete control of the light :)
Most definitely, you're very welcome! Indeed! Good point! I didn't think about that. 😁🙏💚✨🤙
Great photos! I never get good photos of insects...probably because I'm a little afraid of them...
practice does help , i just find them facinating
The Macro photography is soooo good! Even if my phone camera is great. My hands are so shakey that the photo's becomes blurry as heck!
GRRRRRRRRRR
increase the shutter speed of your camera if possible iwill help to make things less blurry :)
I thank you my camera sensei.
NOw surrender your BUrgers!
Wow, great photography I must say.
You did a good job. The flower looks nice. Too bad for the neighbour who got an unwanted shower 🚿
I hold a master's degree in Wildlife and possess a profound passion for observing untamed creatures in their natural environment. The sight of a rose adorned with delicate droplets is truly a captivating spectacle.🌸
