I had a small blue butterfly called a Holy Blue in the garden and I managed to get a few images. It landed on a Grape Hyacinth. I really liked the all blue theme of the image. It inspired me to get back into an area of photography where I first started. To be honest in those days I could only really afford a macro lens as the large telephotos were out of my reach.

I loved the simplicity of the image and the dark out of focus background.
That was it I was hooked again!
It almost seems like a re-born hobby and I am really enjoying my renewed interest.
Wild flowers butterflies and Dragonflies all come into scope.

On my smallholding there were a lot of Skipper butterflies in flight and I settled down by a Common Centaury, a beautiful pink little flower, and waited for a few minutes. Sure enough a Small Skipper landed on it. It created this pleasing image of the flower and the butterfly. I really like it.

There is still plenty of summer left too!
Keep enjoying nature everyone.
