Through The Eyes Of My Camera Comes A Fly

Practised using the macro feature on my camera, I expect I'll be using this feature a whole lot more.



Above is a picture I took of a common house fly or for all you Romans Musca domestica, these acount for 90% of all flies that inhabbit domestic places. Interesting stuff.

I was pretty excited when I saw the hairs on the fly, surprising how much excitement a picture of a fly can actually bring to the average teen...Tell a lie I'm probably nothing like 'The average Teen' I mean who takes pictures of flies at the weekend? (Well me)

Anyway...

Oh well, If my summer gets anymore exciting you can expect more pictures of flies...

Pass Time Photography

What to say...These are a few off my first attempts at trying to work a camera, I wouldn't say there too shabby but I know very little about what makes a good picture.


Above is a picture I took of a dragon fly...

'Characterized by large multifaceted eyes, two pairs of strong transparent wings, and an elongated body' this is of course according to Wikipedia.
They always seem most appealing and I would think most photographers (any one with a camera in my case) would be drawn to them. See I was trying to take a picture of a Heron at the time and got side tracked by this little critter which is fair enough I guess.

So Yeah, taking pictures, I find, is a very good pass time and seeing as I've an extra long summer ahead of me I expect i'll be posting a few more.
