I took a stroll in the college walled gardens this afternoon in search of my photo for today. As I walked around I noticed these rather colourful daisies and stopped to take some shots, focussing on one flower while making sure I caught some of the other blooms in the background. As I did so this small insect landed on the flower I was concentrating on and I managed to catch it in a few frames before it flew away.

Good shot - I like the way the foreground is in focus but the background really out of focus - brings the foreground into nice relief davids · 2009-08-04: 11:06
