Not until you've tried doing it...

...do you realise how difficult some shots are.
Like a lot of folk I look at some pics and think - hey nice idea, I'll give it at try.

Only when it comes down to it you realise just how blooming difficult some shots are, (well at least to me!)
Here's a couple from yesterday.


A candid shot -hey anyone can sneak up and take a snap? yeah right! Took me ages to aim and shoot, so worried about a tap on the shoulder!

A close up -I wanted a bee, but I wanted it freezed and preferably facing the camera! (a smile would have been good!)

For those who do these shots, I doff my hat.

Very nice shots, i certaintly couldn't take them. How long were you waiting for the bee to get in the right position?

Hi Edward, my first rule after yesterday after chasing bees was to just focus on one flower and hope to see some bee activity! The one I posted was one where I was more active than the bee.
Going to give Mr Sweetgirl a shout.

That is a great candid shot, great expression on the pretty lady!

I think the candid could be used as evidence. It seems she may have nicked that dress.
