hi there
Posted: Fri Jul 24, 2009 1:22 pm
Thought I'd better introduce myself as I've just become a member on this great site.
My name is Irene, and I've been rummaging throught your site for some 2years now, mainly trying to identify snaps I've taken. So I finally took the plunge and signed up.
As with so many of your new members I've recently gone digital with the camera and still have a lot of learning to do, but it's a facinating learning curve. Why is it that you always see great shots or some butterfly you've not snapped before when you haven't got the camera on you? Stalking any wildlife in the garden keeps me on my toes (especially as my garden is on a steep slope, the back of the garden being higher than the roof of the house), but I love landscape and bird photography too.
Today I had seven differnt species of butterflies on the old rambling buddlea - 2 red admiral, a handfull of commas, numerous large whites, 1 peacock, speckled woods, 4 gatekeepers, 1 painted lady - plus an abundance of bees, hover flies etc.
Keep up the good work, this site is very impressive with a whole load of facts and information - cheers
