Our weather has become a bit confused over here, so not sure what season we are in at the moment.
The bees seem to be enjoying the rain and flower blooms though. So out with the Sigma 17-70mm Macro with CPL attached.
Perfect for cleaning the Toilet :

Thanks Rooz.....I don't know one plant from another...but love the colours that are around at the moment. Going on a bushwalk on Sunday the 9th September up in the Blue Mountains....hoping to find lots of colour there.
And to the rest of you guys...thanks for the comments....you should see the 4785 shots that didn't look so good :o

Great stuff, Gaza. I agree with Coldy, I'd love to make that shot! And red really is nice: that's a lovely shot.

I think the Grooms would object if you got the camera that close to the Brides CW :eek: :D:D
Although....perhaps there's a market for that sort of thing (need an assistant ?) ;)

Thanks for the comments Drew, Toriaj, Speed2, Adam, Drama, Timmciglobal, MichaelB & Tim11.
It helps when there's some colour to be shot....spent most of the Winter taking shots of dirt, weeds & nuthin' in particular :p
