Hey guys, out with my new camera today, first to Bishop Middleham Quarry, then back to home (South Shields).

Let me know what you think!

Thanks,

Darren

I love the Painted Lady shot on the stones!
Brilliant mate

Great photo of the Small Copper, all of my Small Copper photos are no good from today (out of about 80)

I like 'em all!

Good composition, depth of field, ...

I think the Geeen-veined White is v. nice!

Cheers,

Nice shots Darren - happy new camera!

They're all good but I'd agree that the small copper is the pick of the bunch because they're small, alert and not easy to approach for a good close-up. Were you using the camera straight from the box or did you have a macro lens?

Small Copper is the best for me out of a great bunch of images. I think you are going to enjoy your camera!

Hi David. I used my camera straight out of the box, not bad eh i am well happy.

excellent shots, small copper is my fav as well

I try to place a butterfly slightly off-centre rather than plop it right in the middle of the frame, which is why I think the green veined white stands out amongst the rest. Notwithstanding that, all the shots are well exposed with good colour saturation and are nice and sharp. You must be well chuffed with the new camera.

I love the last one. Sorry I have not been able to learn names yet. I have been too obsessed with the pictures everyone has been posting.
I love it because a sneaky fly has seen the oportunity to become famous.

I wish my camera could do that and yes I am blaming my tools.

They are all great. you must be looking like this at the moment
