Your Photo of the Week

Week #8 (apologies, missed a few weekends due to being away) - Rievaulx Abbey in Yorkshire. A lovely building with much to see and photograph, alas, too many people around to take the images I really wanted to.

Week #9 and surprise surprise, it's another flower, a Cosmos this time. I'm finding I really enjoy photographing flowers, the soft, subtle shades and contrasting foliage really inspire my creative juices to flow. Time to influence the wife's flower planning for next year! Lense used was a Tamron 70-300mm, set in macro mode at 180mm.

Week #10 for me, and this time, surprise surprise, another flower. Bishop of Dover dahlia, complete with a bee going about its daily business. Taken again with the Tamron 70-300mm in macro mode.

Week 24 - I found this stunning little Spurge Hawk-moth Caterpillar when I was out for a walk. These caterpillars have been introduced from Europe to help fight the invasive weed Leafy Spurge. The caterpillars are vivid and bright but in contrast the moth is surprisingly drab. The red spike is on the tail end.
