Originally posted by photolady95 Nice shots, Noel...........but when do you ever find time to work in the garden? LOL
My Apologies, should have responded to this earlier. Partly a necessity, as the weeds, given that we had lots of rain, had overgrown the path to the toilets at the church, and some of the ladies were afraid the might get attacked, by insects of course. Partly too that I had decided to devote about 2 or 3 hours in the mornings to doing some gardening, seeing that its holiday season, and ministry matters were at a low ebb. And as you can gather, its not that the Camera was left behind.

I lost the Raynox a while back, October I think, so i'm back to using the Sigma 28-80mm Aspherical Macro lens, usually coupled with the screw-on magnifying glass. Or else its the good old Tammy 70-300mm. Imho, it does pretty good at macro. And thank you for your kind comments.
Originally posted by WPRESTO Really nice set of images, noel. The white insect looks like a cockroach nymph.
Thank you sir! Cockroach? It was huge, at least 30cm.
Some more
Oh dear!
Here the Tammy did not do so good, but I had little choice, that ant was moving that wasp at top speed.
Still with the Tammy.
