A bit disturbing this one. A group of fox carcasses lain in a row, possible to deter other foxes. About 8 in a pile, plus a whole load of dead crows over the fence from here. More pics on py flickr page.

Creepy Crawley things
For fathers day my wonderful family bought me a super 60mm f2.8 Macro lens. I love this lens. It’s my first proper, non-kit lens, and although I feel like a beginner with it, I am impressed with the quality of the images it produces.
As I am trying to work fully manual, the things I’m concentrating on to begin with are focus and depth of field. Consequently I am blasting everything with off camera flash to use as small as aperture as I feel I can get away with.
So next is lighting, and then composition

New direction
I have started focussing (‘scuse the pun) on photography a bit more recently. I was getting increasingly frustrated with my other hobby, music, so that's taking a well earned rest.
Over half term, I have been on early morning jaunts across the fields in search of images to capture. I have been quite a lazy snapper in the past, so now I am taking my time, taking my tripod, and trying to improve.
I have also been doing a bit in the garden trying to photograph bees. Although my results are poor, in my opinion, it has inspired me to start to save for some macro equipment. The idea of close up pictures of creepy crawlies really appeals.
