Re: GESO: spring flowers etc (6)

[Stanley Halpin]

Thanks Mike. My naming of the Fly was a wild guess based on the notion that 
this is the month of May and the thing just started showing up.

As far as the mushroom is concerned, yes a bit distressed and could have used 
better lighting. I bought it at our farmer’s market a week earlier so it had 
dried out in the meantime. And I think it also was distressed because all of 
the rest of its brethren had been chosen for the saute pan and a warm swim in 
an omelet/scrambled egg dish. By the time I got to doing my planned macro shots 
I was losing patience, Meg was trying to read the Sunday paper and didn’t want 
me dimming the lights or closing the shades, I didn’t have another table to 
relocate to, so I just did a couple of quick shots and resolved to go back to 
the market this coming Saturday…

I did a a long series outside of the bee on the flower. Most are essentially 
identical; there was a breeze and I was trying to anticipate quite moments. At 
some point the bee changed positions and is more sideways to the camera, maybe 
a better “portrait” of the bee but I liked this pose.

Thanks all for your comments..

Point of order. 8 -)  That's not a Mayfly (Ephemeroptera) but a Crane Fly 
(Tipulidae).  The latter is a true fly, the former a member of a group of 
archaic insects that includes dragonflies and damselflies.

I think it would have benefited from better lighting, it seems to have 
interesting shapes curves and crevices that are lost in the flat lighting.

GESO: spring flowers etc (6)

A Mayfly, outside looking in. A mushroom from the farmers market last week. And 
in between, four flowers shots, including a trilium being molested by a bee,
